Description

The million-selling, best-loved classic tale of Gerald the giraffe in a chunky board book edition that's perfect for little hands.

Gerald was a tall giraffe whose neck was long and slim,
But his knees were awfully bandy and his legs were rather thin…

Gerald the giraffe longs to go to the great Jungle Dance, but how can he join in when he doesn't know how to tango or two-step? Everyone knows that giraffes can't dance . . . or can they?

A funny, touching and triumphant story about being yourself and finding your own tune, with joyful illustrations from Guy Parker Rees. This chunky board book edition is perfect for little hands.

“All toddlers should grow up reading this” Daily Mail

“A modern classic” Baby & Me

“A joyful read about an outsider who finds acceptance on his own terms . . . there's also a simple moral about tolerance and daring to be different” Junior

“A fantastically funny and wonderfully colourful romp” Daily Telegraph

Author Biography:

Giles Andreae (Author) Giles Andreae is the author of many top-selling, award-winning picture books. These include Elephant Me, Rumble in the Jungle, Commotion in the Ocean and I Love My Mummy. However, it is for the international bestseller Giraffes Can't Dance that he is best known. Giles is also the creator of Purple Ronnie, Britain's favourite stickman, and of the artist/philosopher, Edward Monkton. These two ranges of greetings cards, books and merchandise have made Giles the country's top-selling living poet. Giles lives with his wife, Victoria, a children's clothes designer, and their four children by the river in Oxfordshire. Guy Parker-Rees (Illustrator) Guy Parker-Rees' exuberant and energetic illustrations have made him a household name and one of today's bestselling children's illustrators. Notable successes include picture book classic Giraffes Can't Dance, a worldwide bestseller; Spookyrumpus, winner of the Sheffield, Dundee and Portsmouth book awards, and most recently, Elephant Me. Guy lives in Brighton with his wife and three sons.
