Bourriquet is a stuffed donkey coloured between blue and grey, with a moody character in the book. It must be said that Bourriquet would have many reasons not to be overjoyed! He encounters recurring problems with his tail, adorned with a pink bow, which keeps coming off despite the button supposed to hold it in place...
For a change, I gave him a mischievous little smile.
