Based on award-winning ABC News correspondent Lynn Sherrs book, Tall Blondes, this personal odyssey takes a surprising and revealing look at the magnificent giraffe. Sherr visits a giraffe sanctuary in Kenya, attends the birth of a giraffe at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs, and recalls the poignant story of Victor, an injured giraffe at an English zoo, whose plight captured the worlds hearts. Thrill to exciting footage of a giraffe roundup, and eavesdrop as supposedly silent giraffe communicate with each other. As Sherr tells viewers, "You dont have to be tall or blonde to fall in love with these wonderful animals."

Warning To Parents
I made the mistake of not previewing this DVD before showing it to my children (ages 8 and 5). Given the title and description, I didn't expect it to be inappropriate.The story about Victor is touching but quite sad. You don't just hear about it, but see actual video footage.It also shows giraffes mating, which may not be appropriate for your child.It was very touching, but my 8 year old (who LOVES giraffes) was a bit traumatized afterward. Thankfully my 5 year old spent half of the time hiding under a blanket.It is a beautiful DVD. Just don't make my mistake. Watch it first!
