Gerald, the giraffe, is tall with crooked knees and thin legs. It's hard for him to move around, and every year when the annual Jungle Dance comes around, he really feels like a fish out of water. All the other animals have a special dance that is just right for them. Then he meets a cricket who explains to him that "sometimes, when you're different, you just need a different song." Read on for the joy and delight, as Gerald finds his own music. Wonderful.
