Reviews
"Harmless mulishness, affectionately drawn."-- Kirkus Reviews   "[A] delightful book: the pictures...make the point vividly clear even to a very small child."-- New Statesman   "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, "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.

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.

Synopsis
The illustrated children's classic about friendship and self-acceptance, from a Caldecott Medal-winning illustrator and the author of Petunia -- perfect for reading aloud with kids ages 2-5 When a self-conscious donkey meets a new friend who likes him just the way he is, he realizes that accepting himself--long ears and all!--is the most important lesson. Donkey-donkey has a problem. Despite his many friends and his good master, he is sad because his ears are so long and ridiculous. If only Donkey-donkey could have short sensible ears like his friend, Pat the horse, he would be content. So, he seeks the advice of his fellow farm animals who suggest he wear his ears differently, more like theirs: floppy like the dog's, to the side like the sheep's, to the front like the pig's. But each unnatural arrangement leads to increasing insult and injury. Finally, a little girl passing by remarks on the beauty of the pretty little donkey's ears! At last Donkey-donkey is happy. A classic tale of vanity and folly, and learning to accept oneself--protrudent ears, redundant name, and all., The illustrated children's classic about friendship and self-acceptance, from a Caldecott Medal-winning illustrator and the author of Petunia -perfect for reading aloud with kids ages 2-5 When a self-conscious donkey meets a new friend who likes him just the way he is, he realizes that accepting himself-long ears and all!-is the most important lesson.

    The story teaches a child that they are perfect just the way they are

    Beautiful story and the books were new! So surprised since it was originally published over 40 years ago. I’ve bought so many used ones for gifts over the years because the book is so special

    Good condition everything worked out great. Take a little bit of time to get, but I just wanted it for Christmas. It was my daughter’s favorite book when she was little so and I’ll make her cry so that would be worth it.
