The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me is a children's book written by Roald Dahl and illustrated by Quentin Blake.
The story itself is told from the point of view of Billy, a young boy who has always dreamed of owning a sweet shop. His ambition is strengthened by the fact that there is an abandoned building named The Grubber near where he lives. One day, he finds that the old building has been renovated and has become the head office for the Ladderless Window-Cleaning Company. Billy then meets its workers: a Giraffe with an extendable neck; a Pelican who has a flexible upper beak; and a singing and dancing Monkey, all of whom he quickly befriends. Having only recently arrived in England, all the animals are finding it hard to acquire the right foods to feed them all. These include fish for the Pelican; walnuts for the Monkey; and pink and purple Tinkle-Tinkle tree flowers for the Giraffe. Billy and the animals all band together when they receive a letter from the Duke of Hampshire asking them to clean the 677 windows of Hampshire House.
