Yours Sincerely, Giraffe

Yours Sincerely, Giraffe — page 5 — A bored pelican that sounds just like me thought GiraRe Maybe if I write a letter I’ll feel less bored And if I use the new delivery service Pelican will feel less bored too Yes that’s what 12

Yours Sincerely, Giraffe — page 6 — I’ll do I’ll write a letter That night GiraRe fell asleep feeling much happier than usual as he thought about all the things he wanted to say The next day he wrote his very Srst letter and took it straight to Pelican Pelican was a little nervous After all this was his Srst customer Welcome to the Pelican Delivery Service Where shall I take your letter GiraRe was a little nervous too Give it to the Srst animal you meet on the other side of the horizon he said The horizon Er You mean that place over there Pelican pointed to the border between the bright blue sky and the green savanna That’s right GiraRe was beginning to feel excited And please bring back a reply 13

Yours Sincerely, Giraffe — page 7 — Of course The horizon doesn’t look very far I should be able to make it there and back before the sun goes down Pelican Tapped his wings and Tew up in the air higher and higher as if he were being sucked into the sky Be sure to get a reply GiraRe shouted Okaaaaaay In no time Pelican had shrunk to a tiny little speck and disappeared 14

Yours Sincerely, Giraffe — page 8 — Is the Horizon Near Or Far Pelican had said he would be back before sundown but it was now long past sunset and darkness had fallen GiraRe sighed I doubt that even Pelican can 7y in the dark I guess there’s no point in staying up all night I’d better go to bed He gently closed his eyes Even though Pelican had not returned GiraRe still felt peaceful inside It’s all right I’m sure he’ll come back with a letter from the other side of the horizon 15
