BR 1-13: The Little Giraffe

I read the little Giraffe. The main character is little giraffe. Once, there was a little giraffe. He was the first giraffe in the world. He lived in East Africa with his best friend, Rhino. Every day, they looked for food. But the sun was hot and the earth was dry. There was no food anywhere.

So they went to see the wise man. He made a drink for the little giraffe. The little giraffe began to drink. He grew taller and taller. So he can reach the leaves high in the trees.


Rhino had found some dry grass. He forgot all about the wise man. There was no magic drink left. Rhino was stuck with dry grass. He was angry with the giraffe and the wise man. And he was angry with himself. He is still angry today.


I thought the wise man is so wise. Giraffe has long neck, so he need to tall in order to eat the leaves high in the tree. But Rhino has short legs, and he has not long neck, so he does not need the magic drink. He can eat the grass without the magic drink. This story was interesting.
