Summary
Gary Giraffe: A Little Help From My Friends
Gary Giraffe is turning six and can’t wait to reach those delicious acacia leaves all by himself! But when he falls short, Gary is devastated. He tries and tries, but he’s just not tall enough.
He doesn’t want to ask for help, but his friends show him that everyone needs a little assistance sometimes. And that’s perfectly OK!
Includes a Note to Parents & Caregivers with more information on help-seeking and independence in children.
