    Gerry, the giraffe, was known for his towering height. His long neck allowed him to feast on treetops that others couldn’t reach.

    Daisy, the deer, was admired for her speed and grace. Despite her modest height, she could easily outrun any danger.

    One day, Gerry and Daisy were enjoying a meal together. Gerry had some leaves from the tall trees, while Daisy munched on the fresh grass.

    The summer was severe that year. The path to the river became longer and harder. Gerry could endure the heat, but Daisy struggled.

    Seeing Daisy's struggle, Gerry offered to help. He would carry water in his mouth from the river to Daisy, relieving her from the arduous journey.
