Gary the Giraffe

In a bright, colorful world, there lived a tall giraffe named Gary. Gary loved to stretch his long neck to nibble on the tastiest leaves high up in the trees.

One sunny day, he spotted a little bird who wanted to play. “Come up here!” chirped the bird. But Gary said, “I can help you see the world from up high!

So, the bird hopped onto Gary’s back, and together they saw the sparkling river, the fluffy clouds, and the tiny ants marching below.

Being tall is fun when you can share the view! What do you see from your height?
