What chaos ensues when a giraffe grows and gets accessorized?
A boy's giraffe embarks on a whimsical adventure, growing taller and acquiring quirky accessories like a rose on its nose and a chair for hair. What hilarity will unfold next? Dive into this rhyming escapade filled with laughter and surprises, as the giraffe's journey takes unexpected turns, delighting readers with its playful charm.
From Shel Silverstein, the New York Times bestselling creator of Where the Sidewalk Ends and The Giving Tree, comes a riotous rhyming picture book about a boy and his giraffe!
Featuring rhythmic verse and iconic illustrations, A Giraffe and a Half will leave every reader, young and old, laughing until the very end. Beloved for over fifty years, this classic captures Silverstein’s signature humor and style.
If you had a giraffe and he stretched another half, you would have a giraffe and a half. But what happens if you glue a rose to the tip of his nose? Or if you used a chair to comb his hair? Join this giraffe on a rollicking and ridiculous journey that will charm readers from beginning to end.
