Uncle Shelby's A giraffe and a half

by Shel Silverstein

Cover of Uncle Shelby's A giraffe and a half
Ages 5-10

A Giraffe and a Half is pure Shel Silverstein nonsense: escalating rhyme, absurd images, and a sense that language is a toy. Great for read-alouds with kids who love repetition, weirdness, and a little bit of chaos.
