Ed is no ordinary giraffe, in fact his keeper at the zoo calls him "The
Special One". As well as having an extraordinarily long neck, which is
inclined to become tangled, and a photo friendly smile he is extremely
intelligent. In this book, Ed breaks out from the zoo and journeys
through the great city of London where he meets some surprising people
and has many fun packed adventures, before realising that fun is not
always enough!
In this first book find out what happens when he meets the royal family,
saves a sporting event, discovers his voice and then secures the future
of the zoo, all before bedtime. Ed's adventures are supported by
beautiful and funny illustrations providing opportunities for engagement
and learning. Fascinating facts about giraffes and London emerge as Ed
gambols from place to place.
