Some independent studio in Canada released The Little Brown Burro, or, as its now known, The Little Christmas Burro, in 1978, as a means of explaining how Mary & Joseph acquired the titular animal for their trip to Bethlehem.
I don't recall seeing this here in the US until now. Lorne Greene (Battlestar Galactica) is the narrator.
Amusing. One YouTube commentator noted how this was in answer to Disney's "The Small One", released the same year. The producers might've also been inspired by Rankin-Bass' Nestor The Long-Eared Christmas Donkey, produced for ABC around the same period.
Rating: B.
