Such a funny and not preachy "do the right thing" story.

This book is laugh out loud funny! A giraffe argues with a little boy about why he is better than the boys balloons. In the end he is able to show the boy at the zoo just how great having a long neck can be!

Just a really fun read aloud but one you may also want to use for Aha Moments if you teach Notice and Note signposts, as well as SEL learning to talk about the feeling of jealousy and how you react to it.

An adorable picture book about a self-absorbed giraffe that becomes a hero. So cute. I loved the facial expressions. Who would have thought that a giraffe could have such an emotional range? Very well done. I really enjoyed the silly illustrations.
A very cute story.
I got this from the library and looked through it with one of the kids I work with. He enjoyed the silly pictures, especially when the giraffe retreated to his tree. A nice book with a unique story.

A funny story that’s elevated by illustrations that are so lively they practically jump off the pages.

P cute story about a giraffe who gets a bit jealous of a balloon giraffe (wants all the attention and snacks to itself). Parsley renders some great giraffe faces, especially the face of decided malice, but it's not a standout for me.
