Gugu Giraffe: Goes Fishing | Auralee Arkinsly
Pickpick

Gugu Giraffe: Goes Fishing is a picture book in a series for Early Readers (Book 3) by Auralee Arkinsly and several editors via CAPTURE BOOKS.
The story is folklore but the information about the other animals indigenous to the continent of Africa is nonfiction. Great reading alone or in a group.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, and even to a school or teacher or your public library!
