The remarkable true story of the trailblazing giraffologist Dr. Anne Innis Dagg. 

When Anne sees a giraffe for the first time, she can't get the towering creature out of her mind.

What does it eat?
Is it always so quiet?
Why is it so tall?

No one seems to know very much about giraffes. And Anne can't find even one book in the library about them! When Anne declares that she will be the one to study and write about the world's tallest land animal, everyone just laughs.

But Anne is determined. And her love of giraffes takes her across the world on an adventure of a lifetime...
