== The Story of Gerald the Giraffe ==
Gerald the Giraffe had the most beautiful, long, strong neck. And the most beautiful, long, strong legs. He could reach things that the other animals could only dream of reaching. When Gloria Gazelle's ribbon blew off her horns and landed on a high branch, Gerald got it back for her.  When Roger Rhino's bowtie was stolen by Molly Monkey and hid it in a nest, Gerald reached up, and gave it back to Roger. Gerald didn't have a bow tie or ribbon, in fact, he didn't have anything to wear to make him feel more handsome and gorgeous. Then, one day, a beautiful purple feather floated down from the sky, and landed on the topmost branch of Gerald's favorite tree.  "That would be the most perfect thing to wear behind my left ear." Said Gerald. He reached up to get it, but it was too high up. Too high up, even for Gerald! "Jump, Gerald!" Cried Gloria the Gazelle. "Yes, go on, Gerald. Jump!" Shouted Roger the Rhino. Gerald tried to jump, but although his legs were long and strong, he just couldn't do it. At that moment, Wilma the Weaverbird poked her head out of her nest. "I may only be little, but even a little bird can help a big giraffe with long strong legs!" And without another word, she flew up to the top of the tree, picked up the purple feather in her beak, and handed it to Gerald. Gerald was so happy. He put it behind his left ear and chuckled.  "These legs maybe long and strong, but they just weren't made for jumping."
