[Barb · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book is only 42 pages long and the play on words about donkeys made me giggle and others made me laugh out loud, and some I just didn't really understand all that well.

One of the play on words is "My donkey is goofy" and the next page says "I have a crazy ass". Though it is about a donkey, the pages following the donkey sayings makes me compare a donkey to an ass of a person, and most of these fits that description which is why I do think it is funny.

For being a short book with play on words, it really was a fun read. If you have only a few minutes to read and want a few laughs, this is the book you should read. I have never read a book like this before but overall it was funny! Give it a chance, you may need to laugh and this book will give that to you.
