He decides to try and come up with a solution to that problem. He decides to find ways to pretend to be the other animals. <\/p>\n<p>As the story progresses he interacts with many other animals. They all tell him he is too different and they cannot play with one another. This ends up hurting Little Giraffe&#8217;s feelings. <\/p>\n<p>Towards the end of the story all the animals dress up as giraffes and ask Little Giraffe if he&#8217;d like to play with them. <\/p>\n<p>I really like this story. It helps to show children that no matter how different you are from one another, that it&#8217;s okay to still be friends. It helps to show that everyone should be included and no one should be excluded. <\/p>\n<p>I strongly believe that all children can benefit from reading this book. The colors are nice, the illustrations are fun, and the words within the book have the potential to have a resounding impact on the lives of the children it is shared with. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Final Conclusion:<\/strong> 5 Star Rating. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/signature-300x114.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"114\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-9555\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/signature-300x114.png 300w, http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/signature.png 329w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{Synopsis} \u2013 &#8220;Far, far away, lived a little giraffe called Gregory who had no one&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9542,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[198],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6983","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-book-review"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6983","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6983"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6983\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10316,"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6983\/revisions\/10316"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/9542"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6983"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6983"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6983"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
