Sunny Afternoon with Gerald the Giraffe

Gerald the giraffe sits cross-legged, his floppy tail curling forward like a question mark. He wears a big, gentle smile on his face and gazes forward with wide, sparkling eyes. His long neck bends in a graceful curve, and two knobby horns perch atop his head like leafy tree sprouts.

His shiny hooves rest neatly beneath him, while friendly patches cover his round belly, strong legs, and skinny neck. Gerald’s tall ears stick out from the sides of his head, ready to catch every jungle giggle. He looks like he’s waiting for someone to join him for a story or a snack, calm and cheerful in his sunny spot.

Fun Fact!

Ancient Egyptians were fascinated by giraffes and sometimes kept them in royal menageries or gave them as gifts.
