When two giraffe friends find a baby ostrich, they have some questions. Is baby ostrich hungry? Shy? Tired? Ostrich saysno! So how does she feel? Friendship awaits in this book about feelings, expressed both in English and in Spanish.
The giraffe's very expressive facial expressions are my very favorite part of this story as they question the ostrich about how it's feeling. There wasn't quite as much to this story as I was hoping there would be, and I think it might be better suited for a board book format.
