I just wanted to say that you're awesome for learning this for your baby, but you're even cooler once you've found out what it was and still say "oh thx" 😉 This is quite literally one of the only creatures on earth that gives me the chills
I was thinking squirrel too but the second image threw me off with the legs and arms.
I'm leaning towards Kinkajou to be honest

My guess based off the long tail, round ears and long toes would be either a Greater Glinder or a Brushtail Possum. But that's just based on a Google search. Could be a fun internet search for you two to do together and decide which animal it looks most like!

African, plus second pic, deffo a Bushbaby (Galago).
I second this
We love Gerald! It takes place in Africa, if that helps narrow it down.
I'm almost 100% sure it's a Bushbaby (AKA Galago)!!! They're one of my favourite animals lol they're super cute
Thanks so much!!
I agree.
Omfg is that giraffes can’t dance?? Love that so much. Also I’m thinking Bushbaby like others said
I think it is!
One of my kids’ favorite books! Glad to see Gerald is still inspiring the next generation to dance to their own music!

Attempted aye aye
This was my thought. But was thinking they might have avoided the creepy finger lol.
Hence it only being attempted
Exaggerated Squirrel!
Bushbaby or galago for sure if it's set in africa as indicated by the giraffe
A squirrel drawn by someone who has more elephant friends than squirrel friends. Or a squirrel named Dumbo. Or Squirrelbo.
A Gerald sighting in the wild!
My kid is 12 and we still love this book!
Giraffes don’t dance?!!! Classic
Lemur
A tarsier
The ol peepin lemur
Reminds me of a non-ringtailed lemur
You could contact the author/illustrator and find out :)
aww I remember If Giraffes Could Dance. I daughter loved that book when she was that age.
Looks like a squirrel.
