Character Interview with the Donkey from Journey To The Cross by Shane Cloonan

We’re thrilled to be talking to the donkey from Shane Cloonan’s book  “Journey to the Cross”.

Thank you for your interview, donkey.  Can you tell us your story?      

Well not to brag or anything, but I was a key player in Jesus’ life.  I was chosen to go on a journey that was the most important event of my life…the most important event in history, the birth of Jesus and his crucifixion, God’s plan.


What would I love most about you?                                                                                                                                 
My loyalty and humility.


Where do you go when you are angry?                                                                                                                            
My quiet stable.


What is your most treasured possession?                                                                                                                         
The cross on my back which represents my journey in Christ’s life, and the love I showed him.


What is the trait you most not like about yourself?                                                                                                        
My stubbornness.


Do you think the author portrayed you accurately?                                                                                                       
Absolutely.   He felt all of my emotions.


I’m opening up your cabinet.  What foods do I see?                                                                                                       
Grass, hay and grain.  Maybe a few oats but they are really fattening.


Who is your best friend?                                                                                                                                                     
Jesus.


Do you have children?                                                                                                                                                         
Yes, 3, Two boys and one girl.



What’s you idea of a perfect meal?                                                                                                                                   
Fresh cut alfalfa.

We’re thrilled to be talking to Dr. Henriette Behrens, German Federal Chancellor of “Three Brothers” by Joerg H. Trauboth.   It is a pleasure to have her with us today at Pimp That Character! “I work until deep in the night when most of the office lights are out and preferably with women. Too many of the men here are egocentric machos, except one. You unfortunately know who I mean.” --Exclusive Interview with Dr. Henriette Behrens, THREE BROTHERS 1.       Thank you for your interview, Dr. Henriette Behrens.   How old are you and what do you do for a living? Would you also ask a man how old he is, and that in your first question? Shame on you. You are also funny. My personal information as chancellor are only too well-known.

We’re thrilled to be talking to Nolan Troxler from Thorn Osgood's, The Reclamation . It is a pleasure to have him with us today at Pimp That Character! Thank you for your interview, Nolan.   How old are you and what do you do for a living? No problem, thank you for asking me. I'm fifty-nine and a web designer by trade, but I also have invented information and telecommunications products that are completely safe for users and the environment. Can you tell us about one of your most distinguishable features? Over the years I have continued to wear my hair shoulder length with a stubble beard. Of course now, my hair is salt-and-pepper gray. What is the trait you most not like about yourself? Embarrassing as it is to admit, I am completely absorbed with my work and have too often procrastinated on taking appropriate actions when required. What would I hate the most about you? You would probably hate the fact that I remained absent from ...

  We’re thrilled to be talking to AJ from Paolo Mazzucato's AJ AND THE INCREDIBLE FISH.  It is a pleasure to have him with us today at Pimp That Character!   Thank you for your interview, AJ.  How old are you and what do you do for a living? I’m eleven years old, so, you know, way beyond believing in silly things like…tooth fairies or other crazy stories that adults like to tell. I mean, who do they think they’re kidding, right? I live in the REAL world, and ever since my dad left, I spend my time staying out of trouble (mostly) with my sixth-grade friends at St. Anthony School in Wailuku. That’s on Maui, just in case you weren’t paying attention during Sr. Penguin’s geography class, like Eddie who reads comics tucked inside his textbook, which is something I NEVER do. Can you tell us about one of your most distinguishable features? Features? You mean like my nose or something? Well, that’s normal, I guess. I mean my nose is normal. I guess I have messy ...
