«Kirikú y la jirafa» is the children's picture book by Michel Ocelot and Bénédicte Galup, published by Kókinos in hardback (32 pages, in Spanish).
Strange footprints have appeared in the village and Kirikú investigates. A trap set by the witch Karabá leaves him surrounded by fetishes, but he takes refuge on the head of a giraffe. From there he sets off on a journey through a secret garden; the question is how to get down without being captured. The little hero, as always, finds a way out.
First published in 2008 and translated into Spanish by Miguel Ángel Mendo.
Recommended for children aged 6 to 8, especially for those who enjoy picture books with characters.
