The Small One – Disneyland Book and Record
The Small One, Disneyland Records, Storyteller 3820. 1978. Songs and dialog from the original motion picture. I’ve never heard of this Disney movie.
The story is about this little donkey that his owner’s son loves. He is too small to do the work, so they have to sell him. The boy tries to find someone special to sell the donkey too. He can do great things even though he is small, you know. So, guess what he does? This small donkey carries a pregnant girl named Mary to Bethlehem. That’s right, Jesus’ mother.
Now, do you think Disney would have ANYTHING to do with the real Christmas story today? No way. Just touchy-feely, New-Agey, we-are-one-with-the-animals stuff. This album and book (12 pages!) is a look back at a different time, just 30 years ago.

This was new to me as well. I’d never heard of it- thanks for scanning the book in.
