Preschoolers are sure to relate to Twiga's desire for independence in this gorgeously illustrated picture book about baby giraffe that is oh-so-curious. Full color. -quoted by Goodreads
Twig is an adorable little giraffe who's learning to gain a little of independence as he learns more about the world around him. His unease and not wanting to travel far from his mom is something young readers can easily relate to. While the illustrations in Twigs story are just as adorable as he is, I didn't get into the text as much I would have liked. There's not one thing I can pin point about the text that made me feel this way. It's definitely a cute story though and the illustrations are ones I think kids will really enjoy.
