Publisher's Synopsis
Most kids have only seen a giraffe at the zoo, serenely loping around eating leaves from feeders. They may seem almost alien with their super-long necks, sloping backs, and furry ossicones, which are the horn-like bony projections on giraffes' heads! In this book, readers have the chance to study giraffes' anatomy up close, from head to hoof. Accompanying text describes the various body parts and adaptations they have developed over time. Clear, simple language engages readers practicing reading independently and fluently.
