Description
Miki is a baby meerkat who lives with his Mama in a zoo. When a new family move in next door, Miki hopes for a friend to play with. But the new arrival is different to Miki in every way. She's tall, he's small; she sleeps standing up, he sleeps in a burrow; she eats from the freetops, he eats from the ground... However, Miki and Raffa the giraffe soon realize that for every physical difference between them, there's a similarity and compatibility in what they both enjoy - or are scared of! And seeing from the world from someone else's point of view might be fun after all. Also available: Legs: The Tale of a Meerkat Lost and Found
A delightful little storybook with a faith-friendly message of friendship with people (or giraffes) who are different, Just Like You is perfect for children ages 3-5.
