GIRAFFES CAN'T DANCE: JINGLE BELLS is a delightful Christmas board book featuring the beloved characters from the original book. The story includes text that can be sung along to "Jingle Bells" with images of the animals dancing with Christmas-themed backgrounds and decor.

What I loved: This was actually really easy to put to the tune of Jingle Bells and goes smoothly with the song. Being able to sing the book really adds to the fun and appeals to the youngest of readers. The text is large and clear on each page with only a couple lines of the song on each. The illustrations capture all the animal friends with plenty of Christmas-themed details, such as presents, decorations, and snow. For fans of the original book, this will be a delightful holiday addition that extends the fun with (non-religious) Christmas cheer.

Final verdict: Colorful and full of holiday cheer, GIRAFFES CAN'T DANCE: JINGLE BELLS is a charming board book that can be easily sung and enjoyed by the youngest listeners.
