A delightful children's book, The Christmas Donkey tells the story of Christ's birth from the perspective of a young donkey who plays an unwitting role in the nativity drama.

Drupelet, a young donkey named after a juice bump on a raspberry, lived on a raspberry farm, and his wish was to one day be as special as the prize horses in a nearby pasture.

As Christmas rolled around, Drupelet went on an adventure that saw him standing next to a baby in a manger and a young girl in funny clothes. On returning to the farm, Drupelet inquired what this was all about.

This is when the wise barn cat shared the story of Christmas, helping Drupelet now feel special.
