    1)I like the story because it was fun to hear and it has a negative start but at least it has a positive ending.
    2)The moral of the story is that never give up because the giraffe kept on trying to find out what his talent was and when he went home and cried he didn’t cry more he asked some advice about why the other animals aren’t that much of friends with him to his mom.
    3)I think that the BH Value for this story is Resilience!N that never actually give up until you actually have found what you wanted.
