I first encountered this as a song that my supervisor suggested that I play for a client. The song makes me cringe, as does the book.

The biggest wince is that I feel that it makes fun of people with physical differences. I get that the word choices are for rhyming but he could have been a wonky donkey because his walk was wonky due to having different horse shoes or bumping his foot or something. I also don't love the “hanky-panky” usage.
