Like the original Little Drummer Boy, this is based upon the special of the exact same name.
Plot
Aaron, after playing his song, helps Melchior to spread the word by ringing Simeon's silver bells. But when the Romans take the bells for taxes, it's up to Aaron and his animal companions to rescue them.
