We love bookish parody videos, and we love people who don’t take themselves too seriously. Both of these seem to apply to the staff of the Bookshop, Wigtown who put this parody of the Sugarhill Gang’s song, Rapper’s Delight together.
It’s Reader’s Delight and it’s hilariously bad, terribly British and absolutely bloody brilliant!
Enjoy!
That looked like so much fun! I want us to do our own parody. Do you think I could talk to the others into it?
We have The Bookshop, Wigtown featured in our UK bookshop section and it’s a beautiful place!
