In Giraffe, young readers follow giraffes living in the grasslands of Africa as they learn about their natural habitat, physical characteristics, diet, life cycle, and potential enemies. Paired with vivid color photographs, the age-appropriate text highlights how giraffes use their height to find food and avoid predators. Giraffe includes such useful and fun learning features as a detailed comparison diagram showing three adult acrobats standing on one another's shoulders next to a drawing of a giraffe.
