Reissue (1940, Grosset)
(3) K-3 Donkey-donkey is envious of his friend Pat the horse's small ears and feels self-conscious about his own long, sticking-up ears. The other farm animals recommend he change his appearance, further eroding his self-confidence. A sparrow and a little girl succeed in showing Donkey-donkey to love himself for who he is. Cheerful fine-lined illustrations with washes of color add humor to Donkey-donkey's plight.
