MITFORD AT THE HOLLYWOOD ZOO

Mitford is a giraffe. But not your everyday, live-on-the-savanna giraffe. Mitford works at Cover magazine, in one of the biggest cities in the world!

But now another city needs Mitford, and soon the chic giraffe is surrounded by palm trees and super-famous celebrities! It would be great to sunbathe by the pool, but it's the day of the Acadamy Zoowards and these movie stars must have the most fabulous dress or tux ever.

Can Mitford deliver everyone's fashion demands on time?

Terrific read-aloud that's funny whether you know the Oscars or not. While the story parodies the fashion/celebrity world, it's also a clever and highly entertaining story about pursuing your dreams. Also, this will definitely have significant crossover appeal for adults who love/hate/are amused by the celebrity/fashion world.

"Donald Drawbertson" is also known as Donald Robertson by friends, family, and his colleagues at Estee Lauder, where he is a creative director. Robertson enjoys observing and drawing the fashion world in his colorful, kid-friendly, and fun-loving style. He began drawing Mitford on Instagram (@drawbertson) a few years ago, and the long-necked giraffe became the star of his first book, Mitford at the Fashion Zoo. Donald and his family recently moved from New York to sunny California, not far from the Hollywood Zoo.
