Daddy Neck Stretchers

A long neck giraffe, I saw at the zoo. And I wished my head could be up high, too! Daddy, I asked, Why is my neck so small? I want a giraffe's neck, long and tall. Then I could touch the sky so blue, just like the giraffe's with his neck-tall view. I need a neck stretcher. Daddy, please get me one. To be high up in the air, would be so much fun! Suddenly, Up! Up! Up! I felt myself rise! With my head in the clouds, I was no longer kid sized. Next to the giraffe, I sat proud and tall. My daddy's the best neck stretcher of all.
