  In the heart of New York City in Central Park, stood the Central Park Zoo—a haven for creatures great and small. The zoo was abuzz with excitement as the holiday season approached, and anticipation hung in the frosty December air. 
  It was a crisp morning when a delivery truck rumbled to a stop outside the zoo gates. Zookeepers and staff gathered around; curiosity piqued as they wondered what surprise awaited them. The truck's doors swung open, revealing a sight that took their breath away—a graceful giraffe, her long neck craned elegantly as she peered out. 
  "Is that...?" gasped one of the zookeepers, unable to believe their eyes. 
  "Yes, it's a giraffe!" exclaimed another, awe-struck by the unexpected arrival. 
  The giraffe, named Kazi, had travelled all the way from the vast plains of South Africa to join the Central Park Zoo family. With gentle coaxing from the zookeepers, Kazi stepped out of the truck, her large brown eyes taking in her new surroundings with a mixture of curiosity and apprehension. 
  "Welcome, Kazi!" called out the zoo director, a warm smile spreading across his face. "You're going to love it here." 
  And so began Kazi's journey in her new home. At first, she felt a bit out of place among the concrete jungle of New York City, far from the open savannas of her homeland. But as she explored her enclosure and met the other animals, she soon discovered that friendship knows no boundaries. 
  The monkeys, with their playful antics, were the first to greet Kazi. Swinging from branch to branch, they chattered excitedly, inviting her to join in their games. Kazi found herself amused by their antics, her long neck craning to watch their acrobatic displays with a mixture of wonder and amusement.

  The Beast-Helper - One Mind Two...

  The Beast-Helper by Frank Belknap Long - The story of a dictator who sought to hold power by allying himself psychically with a powerful beast. 
  The Dictator sat energetically erect, and delivered his pronouncements in a cold, metallic tone. To the American correspondent he seemed like an automaton-a flesh-and-blood machine that functioned at white heat, and expressed itself in a manner wholly remorseless. 
  The Dictator sat before his desk in his spacious, walnut-paneled study. His fat, pudgy face was aglow with fanatical rancor. "Trivania will become the most powerful corporate state in Eastern Europe," he said."Our cause is a sanctified one, and we shall march from triumph to triumph. We intend ruthlessly to suppress all-dissenting opinion."  
  The American correspondent was scribbling hastily. Suddenly he looked up, looked at the Dictator. "May I quote this?" he asked.  
  "Yes, Mr. Thompson. You may quote me at length."  
  Mr. Thompson was a thin, pale little man with mild blue eyes. He looked conspicuously harmless, to the Dictator. A smile of scorn curled the Dictator's heavy lips as he contemplated the press man.  
  But the American correspondent had more iron in him than the Dictator. It was a different kind of iron. Mr. Thompson was a profound skeptic and a scientific humanist. To Mr. Thompson the Dictator was a savage barbarian.  
  The Dictator continued to profess himself. We shall be merciless to the critics of the state," he said. "Representative government is an absurdity, an historical anachronism. We will relentlessly repress–"  
  Suddenly he stopped, and his mouth fell open.
