Join small camel as he journeys with Balthazar, Melchior, and Gaspar, following a star to deliver special packages to a newborn king.
Small Camel Follows the Star by Rachel W. N. Brown tells the story of the Three Wise Men visiting the Holy Family from a young camel's perspective. A calf of one of Balthazar's camels, Small Camel and his mother watch as Balthazar studies long scrolls filled with important lines and words. On the night a bright star appears, Balthazar announces they must prepare for a journey. Unsure of why he is being chosen to join the caravan, Small Camel endures an arduous journey while they add two more packages to his back. Will he be happy when they arrive?
Small Camel Follows the Star is a heartwarming way to share a story we know well. Everything about this story is precious: Small Camel's curiosity about Balthazar and their journey, his overhearing what the three men say, his wondering about what he is carrying, and the book's touching ending. With beautiful artwork by Guiliano Ferri, Small Camel Follows the Star is certain to be a wonderful and unique way to share a well-known Christmas story.
