Tall Blondes: A Book About Giraffes | Lynn Sherr

@LauraBeth This is my giraffe. He plays “Around the World in 80 Days”. I ❤️ him.

Leftcoastzen I love a good giraffe!🦒 6y

LauraBeth 😭 Love it! Emma‘s was a bit of an updated version but pretty much looks the same! 6y

DGRachel @LauraBeth That‘s wild, considering mine is at least 40 years old. ❤️ 6y

LauraBeth Isn‘t it?! I guess there‘s only so much you can do to update a plush giraffe! Have you read

Zarafa: The True Story of a Giraffe's Journey from the Plains of Africa to the Heart of Post-Napoleonic France

DGRachel @LauraBeth No, I haven‘t, but I‘m going to have to add it to my TBR! It looks fascinating. 😍 6y

LauraBeth I haven‘t read it either but Nancy Pearl had mentioned it - you know, like 12 years ago 😂 so I had it noted in my TBR notebook that she had recommended it. And so it still sits on my TBR list... https://www.npr.org/2006/03/31/5297601/librarians-picks-saving-the-best-for-firs... 6y

1️⃣ 🦒 giraffes!
2️⃣ dodo
3️⃣ spiders and cockroaches, especially the big ones that can fly. Growing up in Florida with palmetto bugs was pure hell.
4️⃣ Sloth 😂
5️⃣ That‘s a tough question. Maybe a dog? Or a butterfly? I would like to be pretty. 😂

wanderinglynn Thanks for playing! 😀 6y

LauraBeth 🦒🦒 I used to always beg my parents to buy me a giraffe. “Pleeeeeeeeeze?!” 6y

DGRachel @LauraBeth They‘ve been my favorite as long as I can remember. I still have the giraffe I had as a baby that plays music while his neck rolls. 😍 I collect giraffe figurines, plushies, etc. 6y

LauraBeth OMG @DGRachel! I bought that stuffed giraffe that rolls it neck for my daughter. She carried that with her everywhere she went until she was 6 or 7 and she STILL sleeps with it 😂 6y

DGRachel @LauraBeth I slept with mine for a long time. In fact, I managed to bend the metal rod. It can‘t be fixed, as the toy repair guy said trying to bend it back would probably just cause it to break. 😭😭 6y

LauraBeth @DGRachel 😢😢 Her rod is bent too and tore a hole through the neck. I had already broken the music box when she was around three when I put it in the washing machine 🙀 You should snap a pic so I can see if it‘s the same giraffe 😂 6y

DGRachel @LauraBeth Already done and tagged you in the post. 😂🤣😂🤣 6y

When you round the corner at the library and see this 😂😂 I like my giraffes to be straight-laced - so I voted for #1.

Moray_Reads My immediate thought was A but the the logical choice is surely B! A question for the ages 😉 8y

Megabooks Obviously 1! 8y

M-D If the tie was longer I would go with 1, but since it isn't I will vote 2 😀 8y

MatildaBaggins I'd say 1 😂 8y

Megld4 1 8y

CrowCAH I vote #1 8y

mom2bugnbee My 14yo daughter says #2 because "we, as humans, tie our ties at the bottom of our necks, not up by our chins." My 11yo daughter says #1 because "giraffes are not humans." ? 8y

Scurvygirl He should wear a bow tie instead! 💚💚 8y

Librarianaut 😂😂😂😂 8y

Cinfhen @Scurvygirl 😂🙌🏻💕 8y

LauraBeth @Moray_Reads 🤔🤔 8y

LauraBeth @Ebooksandcooks obviously! 😂 8y

LauraBeth @M-D you just solved it because I was completely unaware that the ties were two different lengths! 8y

LittleBowBook Definitely 2, like @mom2bugnbee 14 year old daughter said, ties are a human clothes, and we tie them at the bottom of our necks, not the top. 8y

LauraBeth @MatildaBaggins, @Megld4, @CrowCAH #1 for the win 😀 8y

LauraBeth @mom2bugnbee this made me 😂😂 8y

LauraBeth But where would the bow tie be placed? 😂 @Scurvygirl and @Cinfhen 8y

M-D @LauraBeth I'm just here to help 😂😂 8y

LauraBeth @Librarianaut it's always good if the library can make you smile 😀 8y

Scurvygirl Where it doesn't clash with his spots and it looks cool!😝 8y

LauraBeth @LittleBowBook I think I agree with @mom2bugnbee's 11 yo 😂😂 8y

Cinfhen Haha, figure 1 of course! It's where all the smoldering,sexy giraffes wear them😎 8y

LauraBeth @Scurvygirl 🤣 I can't believe there isn't a bow tie emoji... 8y

Scurvygirl @LauraBeth or giraffe... 8y

LauraBeth @Cinfhen 😂😂 8y

LauraBeth @Scurvygirl if there is a unicorn emoji then the giraffe deserves one 🦄 8y

mom2bugnbee This convo is making me laugh! 😁 😁 😁 8y

SheReads3 This is fantastic! 8y

Suet624 Yup. #1 for me too. 8y

Suet624 @mom2bugnbee your children are brilliant. 8y

mom2bugnbee @Suet624 Haha! Thank you so much! The older one is the logical one, & the younger one is the one who thinks out of the box, as you can see! 8y

Lmstraubie 😂😂😂 8y

LauraBeth @mom2bugnbee I agree with @Suet624 - brilliant! 8y

LauraBeth @SheReads3 😂😂 8y

LauraBeth @Suet624 it's really the most logical 😂 8y

LauraBeth @Lmstraubie this is what I get for staying off FB - I missed all the funny memes! 😂😂 8y

Lmstraubie Yes, but by staying off FB you also miss all the negative BS 😉 8y
