Gigi’s colors
Gigi looks the same on every page, and her colors stay the same too:
- Golden-yellow coat.
- Rich brown patches, large on her neck and body, smaller on her legs.
- Soft pink blush cheeks.
- Glossy dark brown eyes with white highlights.
- Dark brown hooves.
- Eyes closed on the two sleeping pages (pages 5 and 24).
- Mama looks the same as Gigi, only larger, with longer eyelashes.
Those are Gigi’s colors in the book. Your child can follow them, or choose any colors they like. Gigi grows from a tiny calf into a big giraffe, but she is the same Gigi on every page.
