Wonky Donkey has a daughter with the same rambunctious spirit as her dad. Kids, parents and their loved ones will enjoy the hilarity and cumulative read-aloud fun. This adorable pint-sized donkey has beautiful long eyelashes, loves to listen to rowdy music, has a very cool spiky haircut ... and sometimes smells a bit bad (like her Dad!) She's a blinky, punky, stinky ... you know how it goes ... dinky donkey! Wonky and Dinky become the perfect duo to get even more young children reading (and hopefully some more grandmothers, too)!
"Kiwi children's book The Wonky Donkey is a viral sensation after video of a grandmother reading the tale to her grandson gathered millions of views." - NZ Herald; "The Wonky Donkey by Craig Smith is hilarious!" - Goodreads.com
