Gemina stood out from the other giraffes at the Santa Barbara Zoo. She was the famous crooked-neck giraffe. Everyone who saw her wondered if she was all right? Did her neck hurt? As months passed, Gemina's neck leaned more and more to the side but it never seemed to bother her. Gemina didn't let her difference stop her from doing anything the other giraffes did. Told with affection and illustrated with oil paintings, this is Gemina's story, a celebration of the life of a very special giraffe.ALL proceeds from the sales of this book were generously donated by the author and go directly to support the animals at the Santa Barbara Zoo

How Lucky Got His Shoe is a delightful story a Humboldt penguin born at the Santa Barbara Zoo with a foot that was growing improperly.

The wind went whoo-whoo. Cow sneezed, Moo-CHOO, Moo-CHO. The hay blew. Quack-CHOO, went Duck. Quack-CHOO. Quack-CHOO. One night the wind blows through the barn and causes Cow to sneeze, which sets off a sneezy chain reaction. Each barn animal sneezes in turn, until a cacophony of sneezing fills the night, waking Sue in the farmhouse. Young children will delight in Karen B. Winnick's humorous picture book that features a rhyming text and familiar animal sound words.
