Gugu Giraffe - Goes Fishing

A highly recommended complement for the animal biology, plant life, weather, water, and geography curriculum in K-3rd grade.
This story splashes in observations of the Okavango Delta and fable-styled animal interactions in the river through fine storytelling and artwork.
It all begins on a dry Botswana day when young Gugu, a giraffe, announces he wants to go fishing.
Specifically, Gugu wants to know, "What is a fish?"
Matriarch Chidinma of the nearby elephant herd allows Gugu to join her parade lumbering to the Okavango River.
There, Gugu can board a mokoro tourist boat to see about fishing.
Adventure awaits Gugu as the matriarch elephant, a crocodile, a hippopotamus, and a cormorant explain why they could not possibly be a fish!

Reference guide with book questions are included for teachers and student resources.
