The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me Classic Paperback

A small paperback edition of  Roald Dahl's The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me.

"I was standing across the road gazing at the wonderful building when suddenly an enormous bathtub came sailing out through one of the second-floor windows...."

Just imagine a little boy, a giraffe and a pelican coming to clean your windows! Why use a ladder and bucket when a giraffe and a pelican will do? Together with their friend Billy, they will come up against the Cobra: the cleverest and most dangerous cat-burglar in the world.

A great introduction to Roald Dahl for younger readers.
