My Mommy is a Giraffe

My Mommy is a Giraffe shows young readers how other animal mothers care for their dependant young. The young reader learns, from reading this book, that human 'Mommies' are not the only animal mothers that love and take good care of their offspring. Through the imaginary eyes of juvenile wild animals, we learn how various wild animal mothers, in their natural habitats, take care of their young, providing them, in their own special way, with the love and protection they need to someday become adults, and possibly parents, themselves.Young readers will also hopefully learn that it is the sacred responsibility of people everywhere to protect the natural habitats (homes) of our wild animal friends and to respect their naturally given right to live and share the Earth with us.Since humans demand and take so much from the environment, and as a result cause the most amount of damage to our planet than any other living thing, we are often the reason why many animals have sadly become extinct and many others are seriously threatened.It is up to all of us to help protect and nurture natural habitats, thereby insuring a secure future for wildlife everywhere. We must all strive to discover acceptable alternatives to our destructive lifestyles that threaten the stability of Earth’s many diverse ecosystems.It is never too early to teach our young children the importance of respecting and cherishing all the varied life on our little blue planet.Hopefully My Mommy is a Giraffe will educate young readers to the fact that it is up to all of us, young and old, to protect all the wild creatures that share our fragile planet with us.
