Having such a long neck isn't always a great thing! In fact it can ruin everything; however, that long neck can come in handy sometimes!

Fun read aloud, kids will enjoy the repeating parts.
I loved reading the Nerdy post Heidi did that explains where she got the idea for the story.

I liked this one. Sometimes giraffes can be pretty helpful.

Cute idea, but the boy's negative attitude toward the giraffe started to grate on me and the ending was predictable.

Four stars for an adorable read, minus one for some rather unchecked bullying behavior.

Have you ever wanted to spend time with a giraffe? Well, I have news for you... giraffes ruin everything. They’ll spill your juice at parties, block your view at movies, and ear your ice cream out from under you. However, given the chance, they can be quite useful, especially if there is a kite stuck up in a tree. However, elephants... they surely ruin everything all the time. Neo liked this story, laughing at all the antics of giraffes and their silly behaviours. With the end of the year literally around the corner, Neo was happy to choose such a great book as one of the last he enjoyed in 2017!

There's something of an "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie" vibe to this that I like.
