Oh Dear, Geoffrey!

With superb artistic detail in these mural-like spreads, a gangly, dejected giraffe wanders a savannah of splendid color and creative design, attempting to make friends. The adorable, chattering gray monkeys and polite bluebirds help Geoffrey become comfortable in his own skin, a wibbly-wobbly, bendy-buckly patchwork of fabrics, newsprint, and paint splatterings. This gorgeous (and funny) picture book explores the opportunities found in companionship and nature. Ages three to seven.
