Description
The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me by Roald Dahl is a delightful children’s adventure about an unusual team of animal friends with a rather extraordinary business.
When young Billy discovers an abandoned sweet shop, he soon meets its new owners: a giraffe with an extraordinarily long neck, a pelican with a magical beak and a monkey who can sing and dance. Together, they run the Ladderless Window-Cleaning Company. Their biggest job yet takes them to the home of the wealthy Duke of Hampshire, where an unexpected adventure involving burglars and a generous reward brings Billy closer to his dreams.
Filled with Roald Dahl’s playful storytelling and Quentin Blake’s distinctive illustrations, this imaginative tale celebrates friendship, teamwork and the unexpected ways dreams can come true. It’s a lovely choice for young readers who enjoy whimsical animal characters and funny adventures.
