About this ebook
Based on the true story of Kipekee, a rare reticulated giraffe born without spots who captured the world’s heart, this adorable and uplifting picture book celebrates the joys of being unique.
It’s summertime at the Brights Zoo and something very special is due… a new baby giraffe! And this giraffe is extra extraordinary. She is all one shade—not a spot to spot! Mama loves her baby unconditionally and knows she is perfectly herself, but will everyone else see it, too?
