As for Harold, he had enough apples for everybody. But, he never told anyone. You see, Harold wasn’t the brightest of the giraffes, but he wasn’t an complete idiot. Robert was Harold’s best friend and his favorite food was carrots. He also had enough carrots for everyone. Harold and Robert woke up at 4:30 am to pick and pull their food for winter. ******************** • Winter• Harold wore a scarf with blue polka dots and yellow snowflakes. Robert just wore a really weird hat. All of the fellow giraffes were sick and hungry. And after a while, all of the giraffes were close to dying.
