Once upon a time, in the city of Nazareth, there lived a little donkey, terribly lazy and very unkempt. But one day, at the well, he met the kind and gentle Mary, and from that moment on, the donkey's life changed forever.
The little donkey becomes Mary's faithful helper and sets off with Mary and Joseph on a long and dangerous journey to Bethlehem at the very moment when Mary is about to give birth to a child...
This touching and fascinating story, which has become a classic of children's literature, will help each of us to get into the spirit of Christmas and will be an excellent opportunity to talk with a child about good and evil, about loyalty and true love.
This edition contains the second part of the story of the little donkey's journey with Mary, Joseph and their son to Egypt and their return home.
In Germany alone, since its first publication in 1962, the book has gone through 34 (!) reprints and was adapted into a six-part full-length animated series.
