Prince Mosi, son of Kenjo, king of giraffes, escapes from the royal tower. He wants fun; he wants friends; he wants freedom. He doesn't want to be the ruler of a vanishing species. Then he meets the beautiful Monifa and rescues her from a crocodile. While he's gone Oskar, Kenjo's okapi cousin, seeks sanctuary in the tower because he no longer feels save of a preserve. They discover that twins have been born. "If all giraffes had twins, our numbers would double and we'd be out of trouble," Kenjo declares. He finds out that nine-banded armadillo has the most multiples and orders Oskar to find out their secret. But there are no armadillos in Africa. What they don't know is that some middle school Texas techies and armadillo lovers will help. Can armadillos really save the giraffe species? When Mosi returns with Monifa. Together they find the answer. This book contains little known facts about African ecosystems, and big ideas, like global interdependance and the difference students can make in the survival of endangered species.
