Jerry is a Giraffe that never knew his real parents. Having been taken in by a wide array of animals, Jerry grew up not really knowing what he was. One day, Jerry notices that the watering hole where he and his family live is starting to dry up. However, when he brings this issue to the others, they merely laugh and ignore him. Afterward, Jerry spots a giant tree in the distance, and he realizes that there must be another watering hole out there. At first, Jerry tries to convince the others to accompany him, but they refuse. Thus, Jerry sets off, vowing to reach the watering hole, despite the other animals and their mockery. Along the way, Jerry encounters various animals, and each one presents a different obstacle that Jerry must overcome to reach the watering hole. After various trials, Jerry reaches his destination with the help of a caring elephant. Thanks to this adventure, Jerry realizes that it is important to remain true to oneself and to never give up on your goals and desires.

[NOTE: Until the Look Inside feature is available on August 30th, you can download the first sections of this elegantly illustrated book free at http: //markjbooks.com ] Why Joey The Giraffe Stands Tall Was Written For better than two decades both the online course Mark shares once a year, The MasterKeyExperience and his workshops on personal development culminate with a principled philosophy based on the word Giraffe . And for just as long as Mark has been speaking to groups, attendees have asked for that Giraffe Philosophy to be detailed in writing. In July of 2016 Mark released Standing Tall to meet that pent up demand. It instantly hit Best Seller on Amazon. Over 1000 people who have been through Mark s course have shared and many insisted that this profoundly simple Giraffe Philosophy should also be taught to children and in schools. Joey The Giraffe Stands Tall was written to meet that demand. The Author Mark Januszewski lives on Kauai, Hawaii and graduated American International College in 1971 as a double major. He holds degrees in English and Education. Mark has simultaneously educated and entertained audiences internationally since 1995. His power packed workshops have been described as both riveting and unique. As the old saying goes, the proof is in the printout and the printout on Mark is this clear. The last 54 workshops he s done have sold out months in advance. Mark hosts two live events per year on Kauai and both are sold out six months in advance including the 2016 sessions."
