Gina & Ollie

A curious giraffe. A thoughtful owl. And a world full of little things worth wondering about.

GinaThe one with a question

Gina notices something puzzling and wants to try it for herself. A vanishing puddle, a following shadow, a tiny seed—everyday surprises start her next discovery.

OllieA friend who helps you notice

Ollie is Gina’s small owl friend. He helps her look closely and explore an idea, leaving plenty of room for Gina to make the discovery.
