Giraffe is not happy with his neck, its just not right!  He thinks his neck is "too long, too bendy, too patterned, just too necky."  No matter how he disguises it or hides his neck, nothing works.  He would much rather have the neck of another animal.  Then Giraffe meets turtle, well turtle has been admiring giraffes neck and he thinks its great!  Especially when giraffe helps turtle reach the banana he's been longing for.  This is the beginning of a friendship.  
Giraffe Problems is a story of acceptance and helping one another see the good in ourselves that we may have a hard time seeing. The illustrations are warm and inviting.  This is a sweet story that I'm sure you will enjoy sharing.
