This is a sweet heartwarming book that highlights the power of never giving up, following your dreams no matter what others think or say, and friendship.

The tale follows Mimi, an adorable tiny giraffe, whose dream is to become a fashion model. She learns many valuable life lessons about acceptance, trust, and that it is always best that you have a good sense of humour as you journey along in life. The book teaches the importance of believing in yourself and that dreams can come true.

The colourful vibrant illustrations are beautifully done. I love the diversity of the animals portrayed and I especially love Mimi's character. It's a wonderful book with a positive message that I highly recommend. Excellent job Dr. Betty!

This is a cute children’s book about acceptance and keeping your head high. Mimi is a giraffe with big dreams but she seems to be the smallest animal in the zoo and kept getting laughed at. Soon after Mimi found the circus that had many different animals doing many different things and she ended up finding a place she fit in well. Thank you NetGalley for the chance to read this book in exchange for my honest feedback!
