Humpfree: The Humpless Camel by Julia Dweck is a delightful children’s book about being unique and special. A camel with no humps goes on a journey to find two good substitutes. The story flows with delightful rhymes as you cheer for Humpfree to achieve success.
Dweck was inspired to write this book after reading a story on scientists who discovered a rare camel species in the mountains of East Africa. The book is beautifully illustrated by Young-Min Yoon. My 6-year-old son was delighted by the pictures. He actually used the word “beautiful” to describe them. Xist Publishing will be releasing the book on 10/5/13 on Amazon.
