Did you know that giraffes can be over seventeen feet tall? Or that giraffes fight with their necks? Learn this and more in Save the Giraffes.

Sanhez has written a combination of facts about giraffes interspersed with stories about how people have helped this species. It also talks about why they are in danger and what humans can do to help. Save the Giraffes has large text and many black and white pictures. It will appeal to students who are looking for something a little more challenging than early reader chapter books. The stories and facts were intriguing and held my interest. There are eight other books in this series that focus on learning about and helping specific endangered animals. Ways that students can help giraffes are listed in the back of the book.
