A charming celebration of Irish donkeys, exploring their history, personalities, and enduring presence on farms and film sets. Donkeys were essential on Irish farms before tractors came along. Today, you’re as likely to find them on film sets, modestly swapping stories with their co-stars, as happily grazing in a field. With their velvety muzzles and furry ears, and that honking bray that makes you think you’ve just told the funniest joke ever, they're the best friend everyone wants. Irish donkeys have seen it all, and now they’re here to share their wisdom with you.
