For Over Twenty Years We Have Been Creating for Kids
We
are Gentle Giraffe Press, an educational publisher and creative content firm. Our mission is to give children fun foundations and build their confidence through a love of learning. We believe the more they know, the
further they'll go.
Our president, Corkey Hay DeSimone was founding owner and designer of Corkey's Kids
children's clothing company. In 2003, after a very successful and exciting twelve years she sold Corkey's Kids to start her
own creative content and educational publishing company, Gentle Giraffe Press.
Since then she's written and illustrated over 24 books and created custom
content in the form of websites, lesson plans, maps, apps, products and books for amazing
groups like the Smithsonian, National Zoo, World
Wildlife Fund, Sundance, Clinton Bush
Haiti Fund, National Park Trust and
many more.
We know kids, families and teachers. Gentle Giraffe Press offers our clients a unique skill set that is not often found in the average creative firm.
It's our job to take an enormous amount of information and bring it to kids in
a fun, deep and dynamic way. We want the children and teens to become the experts by offering
them a multimedia approach to learning.
Are you a museum, zoo, education department, group, school system or non-profit? What do you want
children to learn? How can we help you? Please contact us
