Ep. 3: Kayo and Zuza the Giraffe 🦒 A calm animal story for kids

A calm audio story for children. Kayo lands on a baking savannah, mistakes four giraffe legs for tree trunks, and meets Zuza, who eats from the very top.

The sand is so hot that Kayo hops from one foot to the other, and his black tailcoat soaks up the sun like a sponge. He goes looking for shade and finds four thick trunks standing close together under a wide canopy. He leans back and closes his eyes. Then one of the trunks moves.

A lion roars somewhere out on the plain and the whole savannah starts running: zebras, buffalo in clouds of dust, antelope springing over the grass. Zuza bends her neck down, Kayo climbs up between her little horns, and then he shoots upward like a lift as she straightens and runs. At the watering hole the water is warm and tastes of mud, and a zebra asks the penguin in the tailcoat to bring everyone a drink, waiter. The zebras also decide the lion was not hunting at all. He probably just sneezed. Kayo goes home with one idea: everyone has their own just right.
