Thirteenth Day

A giraffe is scared of heights.


I called this story "High Anxiety" for obvious reasons. I placed Gerry the Giraffe in a zoo setting instead of a natural setting since it was a place people are more familiar with. Most people have been too a zoo so it is easier for them to picture in their mind. I liked the idea of the "Horse Whisperer" so I added that and just changed the animal. When I write I sometimes like to gather things from different sources and mix them together. I call this process "Soup Stories". Putting a setting from one source, characters from another and plot, or story line from another. This story is predictable and might make a good picture book. What do you think?
