Gerald is not a good dancer. Every year, he dreads the great Jungle Dance. But, what Gerald discovers one beautiful moonlit night is that when we're different sometimes all we need is a different song to dance to! This is a funny, touching and triumphant rhyming poem wonderfully brought to life by Hugh Laurie and accompanying music and sound effects.
