How Do You Save a Baby Giraffe Book and Gift Box

How Do You Save a Baby Giraffe? tells the remarkable true story of Milani—and the people who refused to give up on her.

Reserve one of the first signed copies before the book arrives this December.

We are sold out of 1st editions. Second editions only are for sale without signature and Milani hoofprint.

Every signed first edition purchased here will be signed by author LynnLee Schmidt and include a sticker reproduction of Milani’s actual hoofprint “signature.”

Milani’s story is still making its way from sketchbook to bookshelf. When you preorder, you’ll get updates from behind the scenes as the illustrations are completed, the pages are laid out, the book heads to the printer, and—finally—the finished books make their way home.

A signed first-edition copy of the book, plus a reproduction of Milani’s actual “signature” hoofprint as a sticker.

MILANI GIFT BOX — $69.95
