Would be nice if you could have a trip on a small boat instead of having to paddle. Will give 10 stars if they introduce that!

How the Giraffe got its Neck in Stroud
13 June 2008 – Curious kids will have all their questions answered at Stroud Subscription Rooms this month, when the story of How the Giraffe got its Neck comes to town.
If your little ones have always wondered how the giraffe got its long neck, how the leopard got its spots or how the elephant got its trunk, all will be revealed when a brand new show from Tall Stories comes to Stroud Subscription Rooms this June.
How the Giraffe got its Neck – from the company behind the likes of The Gruffalo, The Snow Dragon and Monster Hits – will give big and little kids alike the chance to join a genius scientist and an eccentric storyteller on a fantastic adventure across the open seas, discovering how an array of animals came to be.
Including entirely contradictory ideas from the two performers, the new evolutionary entertainment show is inspired by the stories of Rudyard Kipling and the discoveries of Charles Darwin – combining science and a splash of silliness to make for an exciting experience suitable for children aged 4 and up.
Tall Stories has toured the world presenting old, new and timeless stories in fresh and exciting ways, linking physical and visual styles with music, movement and humour. Their June show in Stroud is sure to prove popular with kids everywhere, so book tickets now to avoid being disappointed.
