The Baby Giraffe that Grew Older

In The Baby Giraffe that Grew Older by Kelly Johnson, Chapter 1 introduces Tamu, a newborn giraffe experiencing his first moments in the vibrant African savanna. Surrounded by the sounds and scents of the grasslands and the comforting presence of his mother, Tamu struggles to find his footing on his long, wobbly legs. Despite falling repeatedly, he is filled with determination and a deep desire to stand and join the vast, living world around him. With the gentle encouragement of Mama Giraffe and the quiet support of the herd, Tamu finally succeeds in standing on his own, taking his first small, shaky steps toward a future full of growth, adventure, and discovery.
