Gee the Giraffe Dreams Big

Give me a cozy armchair and my pajamas said Gee He liked sitting on the savannah, pretending he had a TV Why not get one? Asked the meercats, who wanted to watch. Gee decided to turn his dream up a notch. Maybe I’ll get a studio, with paints and such. I could become a famous painter like Vermeer, a Dutch. Or a space capsule, he said. I could be an astronaut. The meercats sighed; but the TV was never bought.
