The selection is West with Giraffes by Lynda Rutledge. Inspired by an incredible true story from 1938, the novel follows two giraffes that survived a hurricane at sea and were then driven across the country in a custom truck to the San Diego Zoo. Whether you’re a fan of historical fiction or just love a story about an impossible triumph, this "emotional powerhouse" of a novel is a must-read that explores the resilience of the human—and animal—spirit.
