Product Description
Gerald is not a good dancer. Every year, he dreads the great Jungle Dance. But, what Gerald discovers one beautiful moonlit night is that when we're different sometimes all we need is a different song to dance to! This is a funny, touching and triumphant rhyming poem wonderfully brought to life by Hugh Laurie and accompanying music and sound effects.Amazon.com Review
Gerald the giraffe doesn't really have delusions of grandeur. He just wants to dance. But his knees are crooked and his legs are thin, and all the other animals mock him when he approaches the dance floor at the annual Jungle Dance. "Hey, look at clumsy Gerald," they sneer. "Oh, Gerald, you're so weird." Poor Gerald slinks away as the chimps cha-cha, rhinos rock 'n' roll, and warthogs waltz. But an encouraging word from an unlikely source shows this glum giraffe that those who are different "just need a different song," and soon he is prancing and sashaying and boogying to moon music (with a cricket accompanist). In the vein of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Gerald's fickle "friends" quickly decide he's worthy of their attention again.

With this rhyming, poignant (in a cartoonish way) tale, Giles Andreae, author of Rumble in the Jungle, and numerous other picture books, shows insecure young readers that everyone can be wonderful, even those that march to the beat of a different cricket. The rhymes are somewhat awkward, but the bold, bright watercolors by Guy Parker-Rees will invite readers to kick up their heels and find their own internal harmony. (Ages 3 to 6) --Emilie Coulter ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Terrific tool for classroom
My daughter (public school dance teacher) has used this book in her younger classrooms to help create interest in dance. The young students love this story.

5-0 out of 5 stars Continues to be a family favorite!
This was my nephew and neices favorite book for Aunt Theresa to read when they were little. But even as they grew older, they still loved to read it themselves. I can't think of a better message to share than "believe in yourself, no matter what. And always dance!" I asked the kids, now 7, 10 and 12, if I could give the book to their new cousin. They considered it and decided that we should buy him his own. Giraffes Can't Dance was one of only a handful of books they took with them during a recent move to their new house and they didn't want to part with it. :)

4-0 out of 5 stars Great Story
This story is adventerous and fun. Each time we read it there is plenty to talk about. The illustrations are colorful, the pages are sturdy and it capivates my five year old and my 20 month old. I would buy another book from this seller.

1-0 out of 5 stars So not even worth looking at!
I really can't understand why this book was reviewed so well. There are no giraffes dancing..the story is so basic and boring and my 3 year old looked at it for about 2 seconds. Don't waste your money!

5-0 out of 5 stars So great
This is such a cute book. My son and i loved it. It lets kids know its ok to be diffrent. Great colorful illustrations as well. I saw it in a display at the library and brought it home and now im going to look for my own copy. ... Read more
