"The Pelican spread his huge white wings and flew down on to the road beside me. 'Hop in,' he said, opening his enormous beak . . ."

MEET BILLY. A kid with a dream. He wants to turn an old wooden house into an incredible sweetshop full of treats!

AND MEET THE LADDERLESS WINDOW-CLEANING COMPANY: Monkey, Pelican (Pelly) and Giraffe (who needs ladders when you've got a giraffe?!).

They have just landed a big break cleaning all six hundred and seventy-seven windows of the mansion owned by the richest man in all of England! All they need now is a little help from Billy.

Can these unlikely new friends make Billy's wildest dreams come true and take him on an adventure he'll never forget . . .?

This is perhaps the best of Roald Dahl books. My 8 yrs old son has put the tag of his favourite book after reading almost 25 story books so far.

I purchased this book for my 7 yr old son and he liked this book very much. The way in which the characters introduced in the book are so perfect that it creates own imagination in the kids mind.

Glorious Book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 6 October 2020

Verified Purchase

I bought this lovely illustrated version of The Giraffe, the Pelly and Me for a 5 year old grandchild. We know the story well because of the wonderful recorded version staring Hugh Laurie. We play this often in the car and it delights small passengers and me. I wanted a book for this grandchild whose reading is coming on in leaps and bounds. She enjoys it very much. All my grandchildren are Dahl fans and I’m guessing we know all his books for children. They all have a favourite. I like this one particularly with its Quentin Blake illustrations and would recommend it wholeheartedly. It has that slight madness that small children accept immediately (a giraffe, a pelican and a monkey setting up a window cleaning business), eccentricity (the richest man in the whole of England), a bit of morality (the burglars getting caught) and a happy ending. Glorious stuff!

Great classic story

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 7 April 2016

Verified Purchase

Great classic story, my son isn't a fiction book fan but this one he actually liked. It wasn't too long and had interesting characters, the story is packed with things little boys like, for example sweets, a robbery, a gun. Really good story to start on as it seems to have sparked a real interest in Roald Dahl for my son (thankfully as I don't feel I can continue reading books about cement, jet planes, tractors etc without loosing my mind). Excellent value for money.

Love the story but book was quite worn

Love this story and the kids will love it too. Book was used but marked as in good condition. Would say the condition was average. Love the story though and the bigger colour edition is much easier for the kids to see.

This book is about a window cleaning company operated by a Giraffe, a Pelican and a Monkey from a shop called the Grubber (former sweet shop). When they are given an assignment to clean the Duke of Hampshire's windows from his country estate little do they know what adventures they will encounter.

Absolutely loved this book. Where did Roald Dahl get his imagination from? The man was a genius
