Donkey-donkey

“Cheerful farm-set illustrations with fine black lines and washes of color add humor to Donkey-donkey’s plight. Duvoisin’s ‘be yourself’ message is as relevant today as it was in the eighty-three years since the book’s original publication.” —Elissa Gershowitz, The Horn Book Magazine

“You will want to find a copy of this one. It’s funny…a delight.” —Julie Danielson, Kirkus

“The message of this story is that it’s best to be oneself, and Caldecott Medal–winning Duvoisin delivers it with compassion and humor, without being sentimental. He knows how to pace a story, give rhythm to the language, and create inviting, bold illustrations.”—Isabel Baker and Miriam Baker Schiffer, Young Children

“[A] delightful book: the pictures…make the point vividly clear even to a very small child.”—New Statesman
