I'm a clonkey-bonkey donkey,

[LaraMN]

I sing Hee-Haw, Hee-Haw, Hee-Haw,
Clonkey-bonkey Hee
Clonkey-bonkey Haw
I'm a clonkey-bonkey donkey,
Hee-haw, hee-haw, hee-haw.

Who writes this shit?! Naturally, there are twenty-two similar pages that follow the aforementioned linguistic genius, and my son NEEDS me to read it all a brazillion times a day.

Oh yeah, and the mouth is a puppet.:scared:

1. Boogie-Oogie-Oogie, baby!

2. Blech. He gets mad if I don't get into character,

and the book is so disturbing, I really don't enjoy it. My Mom bought it for him. I KNOW she got it just to torture me.

3. I saw that book at Target - it's really hideous

When I go shopping with my mom or sister we always meander into the children's section of every store because I have two young nieces. With so many adorable and cute children's books out there, who would pay to buy something as poorly-illustrated and grating as this?

I clicked on your thread title precisely because I knew I recognized that abomination of a "verse" - thanks for jogging my (suppressed) memory of that monstrosity. :scared:

4. Good on you for passing it by....

you spared your niece's parents a good degree of irritation. If perchance you ever WANT to piss them off though, you've got a good resource.

5. I got the greatest gag gift for my sister a couple of Christmases ago

Have you ever seen Boohbahs? They're like teletubbies only more hideous, and there are big singing ones you can buy that do a satanic dance and make bizarre farting noises when you squeeze them. Every time I ended up in the toy aisle with my sister, we would mention how horrifying they were, and wonder who in the nine hells would market such a creepy, strange toy.

She got one for Christmas, courtesy of me. My then two-year-old niece LOVED IT and insisted on squeezing it NONSTOP, bursting into hysterical laughter every time. My sister was ready to kill me. :evilgrin:

[ET Awful]

6. Okay, you had to mention those damn things and make me google 'em

AHHHHHHHHHHH!


Also, they were created by the same twisted mind that invented the Teletubbies.

7. Go to a toy store and squeeze one sometime

Seriously. Your life is NOT COMPLETE until you have heard the Satanic Call of Cthulu emitted from that hideous thing.

8. Be thankful that you do not have

a honky tonk badonkadonk.

[Rabrrrrrr]

9. Those are the most fun kinds of books to read!

The ones with lots of funny sounds and made up words.

I love 'em!

Though I don't know this particular ook. The art looks hideous.

10. There's something more than a little disturbing about that mouth.
