Rudy the Baby Donkey

By Shelly Wilson and Mark Ruben Abacajan

Based on real events, Rudy, The Baby Donkey is the story of a little donkey who is rejected by the herd he is born into.
After being rescued by a rancher and his wife, Rudy must rely on an adoptive donkey family and human caretakers to help him grow up safely. Rudy, the real donkey that is the subject of the story, is now fully recovered from his injuries, and is a healthy baby donkey. When he is completely grown, Rudy will re-join his herd, and will live a successful life as a pack donkey.
