      Donkeys Are Special... and So Are You! - T.W. Krueger

      It was a clear, sunny day at Brayfield's Miniature Donkey Farm. Marcy May was outdoors--simply enjoying the warmth of the sun. Who is Marcy May? Well. Marcy May is a young miniature donkey, and a very cute one, indeed! She knows her way around the farm and, for a number of reasons Marcy May is known to be a spinning ball of energy!

      Earlier that morning, Farmer Tom accidentally left one of his tall ladders near the barn where Marcy May was playing. When Marcy May saw the ladder, she curiously checked it out. She thumped it with her hooves, poked it with her nose, and finally used it to scratch an itchy spot on her neck.

      Oh no! Big surprise! Marcy May was stuck. Yes, her head was wedged between the rungs of the ladder and she was completely stuck.
