Sibling rivalry rises to new heights in this funny picture book about two willful and imaginative giraffes. \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRafi and Rita are twins. They do everything together. They like the same things, they finish each other's sentences, and they look \u003ci\u003eexactly \u003c\/i\u003ethe same . . . except for their height. But who is the tallest twin, really? Is it Rafi, who's so tall that a painter trying to paint him ran out of paint? Or Rita, so towering in stature that when her hat falls off it takes three hours to hit the ground? In a hilarious progression of hyperbole, Jarvis's narrative, at once humorous and endearing, is matched by Chris Judge's bold and whimsical illustrations in a charming, playful, and oh-so-familiar tale of competitiveness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jarvis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Candlewick Press (MA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/09\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 8.90w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781536251685\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudience:\u003c\/b\u003e Ages 4-8\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2026 pg. 57\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBulletin of Ctr for Child Bks\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJarvis \u003c\/b\u003eis the author-illustrator of the Bear and Bird series as well as the picture books \u003ci\u003eAlan's Big, Scary Teeth\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eTropical Terry\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003ci\u003e Follow Me, Flo!\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eThe Boy with Flowers in His Hair\u003c\/i\u003e; and \u003ci\u003eThank You: Saying Thanks to . . .
