Love Giraffes Can't Dance

Publisher: Orchard

A giraffe sings a beautiful song to the reader of this book, telling them that they are loved like the swaying grass, the trees and the sound of branches blowing in the breeze.

Love makes the giraffe sing, skip, leap and boogie to the music that is all around her, while her jungle friends watch her wonderful performance – accompanied by a band of buffalo!

A lovely addition to the original Giraffes Can't Dance picture book, this board book for younger children makes an adorable 'I love you' story for bedtime or any other time when a cuddle and a comforting time out is needed.

There's lots to point at and talk about in the illustrations, from red and yellow beetles listening to a grasshopper play the violin to Giraffe's funky moves and balletic jumps. It's a board book too, so suitable for little ones that like to hold and turn pages and even chew them. For older listeners, the rhyme is soothing and has lots of nice vocabulary to learn – shining stars, silver moon, and so on.
