The book this evening was a lot of fun; and such a perfect Christmas Story; no Santa insight, that’s for sure. We LOVED this book, not only because the illustration was beautiful but the story behind was super cute as well and totally brought the story of Christmas closer.
A beautifully illustrated Christmas story. We’ve all heard the story of the three wise men who brought their gifts to Baby Jesus. But what about the camels who carried them? Here is the story of Humphrey the camel and his long, cold journey to Bethlehem. Humphrey has lost his blanket and schemes to acquire a new one. When the party reaches its destination, Humphrey is so drawn to the love surrounding Baby Jesus that he finds himself selflessly giving his new blanket to the Christ child. Carol Heyer’s rich acrylic paintings showcase the quirkiness of the camel and add humor to the story. Here is a book that both entertains and informs without ever straying from the meaning of the holiday.
