A good children’s book delights not only the child but the adult reading it too. If you can entertain both the kid and big kid, you’ve got yourself a fabulous book. It’s like a movie where it looks like it’s meant for kids, but the writing touches on issues grown-ups can relate to as well. Everyone who watches it enjoys it!
The book in the video below is no different. It is so funny and invites everyone to have a good laugh. It’s impossible to make it through from cover to cover without cracking a rib from giggling. This grandma proves it right from the get-go, and it’s non-stop fun, guaranteed!
Grandma is at home with her grandson spending a little quality time together. They’re nestled up on a couch in a blanket, ready to crack open a brand new book and get reading! She reads the title, “The Wonky Donkey” by Craig Smith and you immediately know with a title like that it’s gotta be good. The baby is so cute and still, ready to be read to as this Scottish grandma gets geared up to take this book on.
But, she has no idea what she’s signed up for! She gets through the first few pages with a pretty straight face. She’s reading out the few words on the page, pointing to the different images and lets out a giggle. But, once she gets a little further, things take a turn.
As the story builds up and progresses, grandma is having a total field day. She is killing herself laughing, unable to keep a straight face or read through the words without throwing her head back and laughing out loud. The baby is very zen, absorbing his grandma’s good vibes, while mom holding the camera starts to giggle too. Grandma is making her way through the story and only laughing more and more, barely able to contain herself. Her reading started coherently and smoothly, but by midway, she can barely string the words together to form a sentence without cackling!
This is such a sweet moment in time. True joy! She’s trying to breathe in between fits of laughter, and it’s just the funniest thing to watch. Not only is the book funny, but it’s also her laughter that’s contagious. I watched this one a few times.
