Book Description

We aren't talking big, here-we're talking giant. The heart of an adult giraffe can measure two feet, and pump 20 gallons of blood every minute. With so much blood racing around, how is it a giraffe can bend over to drink and not pass out? All the secrets are revealed in Giraffes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved this as a kid, September 7, 2009
I used to love this book as a kid. The illustrations are great and it is pretty advanced for a "kids" book. It describes each giraffe species, as well as giraffe ancestors. I remember the picture of the okapi in this book - it haunts me to this day and is one of the reasons the okapi has become my favorite animal. It's a shame this book no longer appears in print. If you have a kid who is interested in giraffes, definitely try to find this book.
