Gorgeous Giraffe

A giraffe gives birth to her calf on the wide-open spaces of the African savannah. The calf’s grandfather, a little hard of hearing, misunderstands when one of the females comments on her gorgeous eyelashes. And so, ’gorgeous’ she became. None could have known at the time just how special this calf would turn out to be. Another calf was born two days earlier, and the two become fast friends, exploring the savannah and meeting other animals and birds. Some make them chuckle, some make them nervous, and others, like the elephants and lions, fill them with respect. As the calves grow and begin to feed from the leaves of the trees, Gorgeous exhibits an unusual skill-one that will one day put her in danger. Now, her father must come up with a plan to keep his calf safe and free to roam the savannah.
