Walt Disney Presents Burl Ives' Animal Folk (Disneyland ST 3920, 1963) is one of several albums for children by the folk singer Burl Ives.[1]

There is a full-color booklet inserted between the gatefold covers of this album. The booklet is lavishly illustrated with selected song lyrics and cartoon representations of Ives interacting with the animals in the songs. See the cover illustration (right) for an example of the illustrations. The illustrator is not identified.[2]

Ten of the songs from Animal Folk were released as A Day at the Zoo with Burl Ives (Disneyland 1347) in 1972.[3]

Apparently Wayfarer Music, the copyright holder of many of the songs in 1963, was a company started by Ives. It is now administrated by his widow.[4]
