    The continuing story of Erin, the drummer boy.

    If you've enjoyed the original Drummer Boy holiday special, you should check this one out. If you recall in the first story, the hatred in Aaron's heart went away when the baby Jesus smiled at him after playing his drum. In this story, Aaron helps a bellmaker keep his fortune safe from Roman soldiers. When Aaron offers to entertain with his animals for the soldiers, his drum gets destroyed. Just think how distraught Aaron was at the sight of his prized possession going up in flames, but things turn out well in the end.

    Unlike the original special, this one mentions Christmas. And if you enjoy the Drummer Boy holiday titles, you should also watch Rudolph, Frosty, and other great holiday favorites from Rankin-Bass.
