Norma Jean got her name because in the winter she has a very thick, curly coat.  But, in the summer, she sheds to be a beautiful donkey — just like Marilyn Monroe. Norma is a very good girl and a wonderful watch donkey.  She will alert when anything is out of the ordinary.  I love that about her.

I got Norma from a donkey breeder who was about 200 years old and going out of business.  I think her name was Jenny Sue.

Norma Jean is very expressive.  In fact, she has her own Facebook Page.

On the whole, her life revolves around the Shetlands who she adores – and food.  You should see her eat a grape.  Her lips are adeptly prehensile.
