The Giraffe And The Pelly And Me

The Giraffe And The Pelly And Me

Meet Billy and an unforgettable team of window cleaners in The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me, a wonderfully funny Roald Dahl story filled with friendship, adventure and the kind of imaginative characters that make young readers want to turn every page. When Billy discovers a giraffe, a pelican and a monkey living in an old building, he soon finds himself caught up in the most extraordinary window-cleaning business imaginable.

Billy has always dreamed of turning an old, empty building called The Grubber into a wonderful sweet shop. His dream suddenly seems closer when he discovers that the building is home to three very unusual friends: a giraffe, a pelican and a monkey. Together, they run the Ladderless Window-Cleaning Company—the giraffe provides the height, the pelican has an enormous beak that can carry water like a bucket, and the monkey takes care of the washing. Billy becomes their manager, and their business soon lands an extraordinary opportunity: cleaning all 677 windows of Hampshire House, the home of the richest man in England. But what begins as an unusual business venture quickly becomes a hilarious adventure filled with surprises, unexpected challenges and a chance for Billy's sweet-shop dream to come true. With Roald Dahl's playful storytelling and Quentin Blake's lively illustrations, the book combines humour, imagination and friendship in a story that encourages children to embrace unusual ideas and unlikely friendships.
