The Small One is the protagonist of Disney's The Small One. He is a gentle miniature donkey past his prime. Long years of working hard have made him weak. Though he eats as much as the other donkeys, he cannot handle the same loads. He has a mental disability where his right ear never seems to stay straight up, giving him that "Disney cuteness" rating. He has strong feelings for the Boy and would give his life to help him, as he almost does at the Tanner's.
