The country's hottest book isn't a hit because of Oprah Winfrey or Donald Trump. It's all because of a laughing Scottish grandmother. Thanks to a viral video of Janice Clark reading Craig Smith's "The Wonky Donkey" to her baby grandson, and her breathless amusement over lines such as "He was a honky-tonky winky wonky donkey." The clip of Janice, who is so overcome with laughter she claims “this book is going to kill me!”, has now had over 100million YouTube hits in less than a month.
