"DONKEY SAYS NO!"

As of November 2009, a children's book titled "Donkey Says No!" written by Kristi Conley-Brockie and illustrated by Edward Rooks is available for sale at dumpydog.com. It is bilingual with English as the primary language and either Spanish, Japanese, or Hindi translation.


"A timid donkey teaches his friends that he does not like rough play. This story was inspired by the Aesop’s fable "The Ass and the Lion’s Skin" and is told through pictures that highly match the text. The text is in English and Hindi. The English text is written at the 3rd grade level. Information about Uttar Pradesh and animal conservation is included at the end of the book."
