► Chloe the Giraffe:

Chloé was born in Africa, in the middle of the savannah.
She loves to walk in open plains while nibbling on acacia leaves, her favorite food.
But what she loves most in the world is painting.

One day she looked at her reflection in a small pond, and was amazed at how she looked. It’s a giraffe like the others, yes. But she saw herself, and there is no one else like her. With her unique spots.
She’s just like all the others, but she’s different. She’s special, as we all are.
And knowing that made her feel good.
That day he made himself a brush with some herbs and began to paint. With mud of different colors and some vegetable mixtures she made her own paints.

And in her paintings she began to capture how she saw the world. In her eyes everything is special and magical: a sunset, a bird crossing the horizon, the lions sleeping in the bushes.
She can spend hours painting, losing track of time. And her mother always ends up finding her. Like that day.

Her mother scolds her affectionately.
Chloé smiles and shows her her latest work. It’s her and her mother in the middle of a sea of grass splashed
with a thousand colors.
She has stained herself from top to bottom with her paints, but you have to admit that it looks impressive.
Chloé is proud.
Her mother says: Little Chloé, don’t ever change. And they hug each other lovingly.
Do you know how giraffes hug? They cross their necks!
And while they are hugging Chloé is already thinking about her next painting ^_^
