Yours Sincerely Giraffe
Author MEGUMI IWASA
Illustrated by Jun Takabatake



This book is about a giraffe who is really, really bored so he finds something to do. Pelican the post bird flies in and says ''If you have any letters to deliver just tell me''. Suddenly Giraffe had an excellent idea. He said ''I can send a letter to someone so I could have a friend ''.  So giraffe wrote a letter and told Pelican to give this letter to the first person at the other side of the horizon.

I recommend that seniors read this cool story.

Never use a Knife and Fork

This is an hilarious kids book which shows you how to eat your food 'properly'. It is a rhyming book that is full of humour, fun and ways to eat your food. But in reality, I recommend this is NOT how to eat your food.

I will recommend this book to young children who are looking for a book full of happiness and fun.
