My Penworthy Pick this month is the book 'Wonky Donkey' by New Zealand author and musician Craig Smith. It's the perfect read-aloud book for a group or for bedtime. You may have become familiar with it last fall, when a video of a Scottish grandmother reading this book to her grandson went viral, as she could barely make it through with her fits of laughter! Smith said, "You can't ask for a better endorsement of your creation than when the person reading your book is having a better time than the child being read to." It has everything you need to get your kids listening and laughing! The rhythmic, rhyming, and tongue-twisting words introduce you to a 3-legged, one-eyed donkey with a huge personality. In the end, you'll learn the he is a "spunky, hanky-panky, cranky, stinky, dinky, lanky, honky-tonky, winky, wonky donkey!" You can even download a companion song for free to add to the hilarity and engagement of story time. This book has been in high demand since the viral video hit the United States, and we're proud to offer it to you in our Penworthy exclusive guaranteed binding, so it can withstand the circulations it will most definitely be getting!
