Publisher: RILY

Dyma lyfr am jiráff o’r enw Gerald. Dydi e ddim yn dda am ddawnsio, ac mae’n teimlo na all ymuno â’r holl anifeiliaid eraill yn nawns y jyngl. Ond mae Gerald yn cwrdd â ffrind newydd sy’n ei helpu i ddarganfod rhywbeth arbennig.

Dyfalbarhad sydd wrth wraidd y stori, a dod o hyd i ffordd wahanol, ffordd sy’n iawn i chi, i ymuno â’r lleill. Dyma lyfr hyfryd gyda darluniau difyr a hwyliog. Mae’r stori ar ffurf rhigwm gwych ac mae’n llifo’n hawdd yn Gymraeg a Saesneg. Mae modd darllen y llyfr yn Gymraeg os oes gennych chi wybodaeth sylfaenol o synau’r Gymraeg ac mae’n ffordd dda i ganfod geiriau sy’n swnio’n debyg yn Gymraeg a Saesneg gan fod y llyfr yn ddwyieithog. Yn gyffredinol, dyma lyfr gwych y byddwn i’n ei argymell yn gryf, yn arbennig i deuluoedd dwyieithog.


The book is all about a giraffe called Gerald, who is no good at dancing and feels unable to join in with the jungle dance with all the other animals. Gerald then meets a new friend who helps him discover something special.

The story is all about perseverance and finding a different way, a way that is right for you, to join in with others. This book is a really lovely read with engaging and fun illustrations. The story has a great rhyme and easy flow in both English and Welsh. The book is readable in Welsh with basic knowledge of the Welsh language sounds and is a good way to pick out words that sound similar in Welsh and English due to the bilingualism of the book. Overall, a great book which I would highly recommend, especially to bilingual families.
