Long neck stretches ... Knobby legs gallop ... Meet the giraffe! Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, Giraffes treats middle-grade researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of this marvelous African mammal. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the animal's relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while a Tanzanian tale about the giraffe adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
