Amazon.co.uk Review
Gerald was a tall giraffe Whose neck was long and slim, But his knees were awfully bandy And his legs were rather thin... Every year Gerald dreads the great Jungle Dance, and feels ashamed that he cannot tango and two-step with the rest of the jungle animals. But then one day he realises that it doesn't matter that he is different from everyone else--its just that he needs a different tune to dance to. A lovely story, wittily illustrated by Guy Parker-Rees and told in rhyme by the award-winning author Giles Andreae, it has a stealth and humour that makes it perfect for reading aloud. Giraffes Can't Dance is a nifty little 1story that children and adults will love to read time and time again. (Ages 3 to 5 years) --Susan Harrison

Simply wonderful. August 8, 2008
This book is simply wonderful. I have read it so many times and I never tire of it.
Giraffes almost come alive! June 24, 2008
This is an absolutely charming book, my son loves listening to the rhyming verse and spotting all the different animlas in the book. A fantastic book to generate your childs love for books, highly recommended.!
brilliant! June 23, 2008
My little boy is only 7 months and he loves it already. He coos and gurgles at the brightly coloured pictures and loves me reading the fabulous rhyming story to him. I'm sure it'll be a firm favourite for years to come.
That different drummer we all want to listen to May 2, 2008

For me and my child, this book was a treasure. The story of a giraffe who can't dance until he hears his "own" music, this is a great way to teach your child about differences in people, and animals.
The illustrations alone are worth the price, and the words catch the children's ears at once. We all dance to a different drummer and that is basically this book's message.
Made me cry.... February 20, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this book after reading so many good reviews on this site. I couldn't even get through it without crying!!! That may have been an over-reaction but it really is a wonderful story and the illustrations are beautiful. Definitely my favourite book in my daughter's collection (and let's face it, it's just as important for the parents to love the kid's books as they're the ones reading them out loud every day of their lives!).
