An emotional, rousing novel inspired by the incredible true story of two giraffes, who made headlines and won the hearts of Depression-era America.

About the Novel: Part adventure, part historical saga, and part coming-of-age love story, "West with Giraffes" explores what it means to be changed by the grace of animals, the kindness of strangers, the passing of time, and a story told before it’s too late.
