Annotation
In this very funny, cumulative song, each page tells us something new about the donkey until we end up with a spunky, hanky-panky cranky stinky dinky lanky honky-tonky winky wonky donkey, which will have children in fits of laughter! There is much fun to be had by listening to the song and trying to predict the new word for each clue given!

Customer Reviews

Fen's Review of The Wonky Donkey
The Wonky Donkey is a highly entertaining book, guarenteed to entertain and delight the whole family. The story keeps the reader in delightful suspense, wondering what else is wrong with this poor donkey with every turn of the page. With all this donkey's imperfections, as well as the beautiful illustrations, one cannot help but fall in love with this character.

They accompanying CD is great - singing along to the tongue twisting rhyming descriptions ensure a language experience the children will enjoy.

Highly recommended!
