A Scottish grandma's reading of the 2009 kids' book to her grandson has become an Internet sensation! A home video of a Scottish grandma's uncontrollable laughs while reading a children's book called 'The Wonkey Donkey' and it's really hilarious. She was reading The Wonkey Donkey picture book to her grandson and book lovers all around the world are rushing to get their hands on this book.

New Zealander Craig Smith’s children’s book, based on Smith’s song of the same name, tells of a three-legged – or wonky – donkey, adding a new adjective every few pages until it ends with a “spunky, hanky-panky cranky stinky dinky lanky honky-tonky winky wonky donkey”.

This hilarious granny is Janice Clark and this is her four-month-old grandson Archer. The more she goes through the pages the more she laughs. She can't control her laugh as the donkey becomes increasingly bizarre and she thinks that the story is hilarious. This video has been viewed more than 3 million times in the last week.

“The video is gold. Watching Janice read and laugh was just delightful, and like many, her infectious laugh had me laughing too,” said Smith. “I’ve always wondered why sales had not taken off so much in the UK and US, but that looks like that’s about to change.” It looks like this granny has just made this book so popular that they had to print another 50,000 copies, with a view for more. Isn’t that amazing?

The Wonky Donkey depends on Smith's song of a similar name and tells the story of a three-legged donkey. The book has been amusing parents and kids alike since it was first distributed in 2009 and recounts the tale of a three-legged donkey who adds another adjective to his name with each page until the point when he's at the end known as the spunky, hanky-panky, testy stinky dinky slender honky-tonky winky wonky donkey.

In this entertaining video, Janice is seen doing her best to engage in her modest grandson, who by the way shows up completely disinterest in the book. She lets off a minor giggle when she completes the main page and it's clearly an indication of things to come. Continuously page, the giggle gets louder and inevitably, she's wheezing with chuckling so much she can't finish her sentences.

It’s really important for kids to know that reading books is important! Even if your grandma can stop laughing through all the reading season! That’s why this baby decided to take matters into her own hands!

This adorable toddler is pretending to read! Brace yourselves because you’re about to be overwhelmed by cuteness! In this video, we meet an adorable little girl as she pretends to be reading a colorful book that is laying on the floor in front of her. She’s talking in the cutest version of gibberish you have ever heard! Not to mention how confident and serious her little face is while she is jibber-jabbering. We just can’t handle this amount of adorableness!
