We sat down with author Lisa Mantchev and illustrator Taeeun Yoo to talk about their latest picture book, THE TROUBLE WITH GIRAFFES — a heartwarming companion to their beloved STRICTLY NO ELEPHANTS. 🐘🦒 Together, they share how the Pet Club has evolved over the years, why teaching kindness and inclusivity to every new generation of young readers is so important, and what it was like teaming up again a decade later. Lisa also reflects on her inspiration for writing about the challenges of having a “larger-than-life” pet, while Taeeun reveals the joy of returning to the whimsical menagerie of animals readers first fell in love with. At its heart, THE TROUBLE WITH GIRAFFES is a joyful reminder that there’s always room to make space for others, no matter how different they may be. ✨ Tap the link in our bio to read the full interview!
