Review by Horn Book Review

Nine species of giraffes are briefly discussed, from their African habitats to what makes each group unique. The sketchy text is engaging but somewhat limited in content; however, children will especially enjoy the photographs providing close-up images of these gentle creatures. A map of Africa showing the geographic range of the various family groups is included. Glos., ind. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
