Hello, friends! Today, we’re going to have a fun story time with Ryan and Craig. We have a special book called “The Dinky Donkey,” written by Craig Smith and illustrated by Katz Cowie. Are you ready to hear about a very special donkey?
Once upon a time, there was a funny donkey called the wonky donkey. He had a little girl, and she was so cute! She had long, beautiful eyelashes. She was called the blinky dinky donkey!
This little donkey loved to listen to loud music. She was a punky blinky dinky donkey! Isn’t she amazing? She was so different from her dad, the wonky donkey.
The little donkey loved to paint her hooves bright pink. Now she was an inky pinky punky blinky dinky donkey! She was full of fun and color!
One day, the little donkey had to go pee-pee. She became a winky tinky inky pinky punky blinky dinky donkey! Even when she was silly, she was still adorable.
Guess what? The little donkey loved to play the piano! She was a plinky plony winky tinky inky pinky blinky donkey! Playing the piano with painted hooves is not easy, but she did it!
The little donkey also wore wild sunglasses. She was a funky plinky plony winky tinky inky pinky donkey! She was the coolest and cutest donkey ever!
Thank you for joining us for story time with Ryan and Craig! We hope you loved meeting the dinky donkey. Remember, you can always come back for more fun stories. See you next time!
