Product Information
Geri is the shortest giraffe in the herd, which causes all kinds of problems when Boba the baboon tries to take a photo. Can Geri stretch up tall enough to be in the picture? Or are the other giraffes looking at things from the wrong perspective? A very sweet story for pre-schoolers about difference and acceptance.Product Identifiers

Reviews"Caution: due to humor escalation, this is not a bedtime story. . . Cleary's soft-hued, gentle cartoonlike illustrations magnify the silliness." School Library Journal, February 1, 2014, "The text is simple, carrying this plot that depends on an ability to see multiple perspectives with elegance. A genteel riot of laughs." Kirkus Reviews, January 1, 2014, ". . .debut talents Flory and Cleary, both advertising creatives, are thinking Management 101, not morality play, and so their story unfolds in a wholly refreshing manner. . . Simple and sunny." Publishers Weekly, January 10, 2014
