Small World is the fifth album by American rock band Huey Lewis & the News, released in 1988 (see 1988 in music). The album did not do as well as earlier efforts, and was met with a mixed critical reaction. Despite this, in a Behind the Music interview, Lewis claimed to enjoy making this album more than any other he ever worked on.
