"Corky’s Tall Tale"
By: Greta Sesheta
Illustrations by: Hansani Prabodya
Corky’s Tall Tale is a heart-felt story about a young giraffe who feels lonely, sad and afraid. In the savannas of Africa, a wise old owl lends a helping hand to the scared little giraffe and his mother when they are in dire need of guidance.
This engaging and enchanting tale reminds children that through unconditional love and support they can accept and even be proud of who they are—even when they feel so different and isolated from those around them.
“Reading these again, I realised they were speaking to my inner child… gentle reminders that you’re ok, you’re enough, it’s ok to be scared, you have a community, and you are loved.”
— Tanya McLaurin Dorsey
