"Giraffes
Can't Dance" by Giles Andrede
 "Gerald
the giraffe longs to dance, but his legs are too skinny and his
neck is too long. His knees buckle whenever he tries to twirl.
At the Jungle Dance, the warthogs waltz, the chimps cha- cha
and the lions tango. 'Giraffes can't dance,' they all jeer when
it's Gerald's turn to prance."
"Fortunately, there
is one little creature who believes in Gerald. 'Everything makes
music, says the cricket, if you really want it to.' So Gerald
starts swaying to his own sweet tune."
"With light-footed
rhymes and high stepping illustrations, this tale is gentle inspiration
for every child with dreams of greatness."
