Today we finished with this beautiful book called ‘Giraffe Can’t Dance’ by Giles Andreae.
It is undoubtedly a touching tale of Gerald the giraffe, who wants nothing more than to dance with his crooked knees and thin legs. It is much harder for a giraffe than we can think of.
At the beginning of the story, Gerald the giraffe decides to go to the jungle dance, an annual dance festival. Unfortunately, when Gerald steps onto the dance floor, the other animals start laughing at him before he even starts dancing. Gerald feels embarrassed and sad but soon is comforted by a cricket who asks him to dance to his own music.After talking to the cricket, Gerald gains some confidence and is finally able to dance. The story ends with the other animals seeing Gerald’s newfound dancing skills and acting impressed.
Giraffe Can’t Dance by Giles Andreae is a gentle inspiration for every child with dreams of greatness. It is very well written and cute and a perfectly favourite book for kids ages two and above.
It is a beautiful book that teaches children about kindness and motivates and definitely inspires them to follow their own aspirations and dreams. It is definitely a wonderful book for kids and one should give it a try and read them to their kids. This is a book with a very beautiful message for kids to always find a way for your own aspirations and dreams.
