To give kids a more 'relatable' idea of what Christmas is about - and to highlight that we don't have to be perfect to be 'chosen' to do something significant.
Synopsis
This cheeky donkey hates to work, and tries every trick in the book to keep people from using him. His persistence has always paid off in the past, but this winter, a man drops by the yard who ʻsimply will not be put offʼ no matter how hard the donkey tries ... and the shocked little mule is given the job of a lifetime...About the Author
Susanne T Schroder is 41, and married with 2 boys of 5 and 9 years. She has a BA in Art and English Literature, a 4 year course in Pedagogy (roughly translated - ‘How Children Learn’) from Copenhagen, and an MA in Children's Illustration from Wrexham University. She writes and illustrates her own books and has had 4 picture books published since 2003. Memories of her grandmother reading out her countless made-up poems like 'How The Forget-me-not Got His Name' have influenced her recent Christmas books - as have the old Christmas legends like: 'How The Robin Got His Red Breast’.
