Giraffes Can't Dance

Every year in Africa, they hold the Jungle Dance, but poor Gerald is a very tall, gangling giraffe and the other animals laugh at him for even thinking about dancing. But who knows what a giraffe can do with the right music? Covered in Gerald’s orange splotches, with a great portrait of him on the slipcase, this is the 20th anniversary edition of the much-loved rhyming story and its wonderful jungle pictures. Age 3+
