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. Will Gerald find the confidence he needs to succeed? This Read With Me DVD software title is filled with learning exercises and games based on this poignant, inspiring story.
