Octavo, illus. tan cloth (hardcover), 93 pp. Fine. Illustrated. From Preface: I have always been intrigued by giraffes. As a child I pitied them for I thought that probably they were aware of their tallness in the same manner that I was. It happened that while I was tall, all my friends in school days and later in society were short, and I pitied myself. Since I myself have never been friendly with a tall woman, I wondered how a giraffe with his long neck and long legs could even notice any creature at all, for all were so much smaller. Recently I have looked in bookstores for a possible story about a giraffe. I found none. I concluded therefore that a giraffe not only had to endure his awkward height but had to console himself with nonentity. I therefore went to the Zoo and talked to the giraffes and one who was very loquacious told me the following story. I hope you all will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed listening to Timbuctoo.
