Small Camel Follows the Star

32 pp. | Whitman | November, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8075-7453-9 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Giuliano Ferri. A bright star is the signal for Balthazar to visit the newborn king. He entrusts Small Camel to transport a special package. When they arrive in Bethlehem, Small Camel realizes he's been bringing gifts for Jesus. The protagonist's wishy-washy personality isn't enough to carry the story, but illustrations in shades of desert tan and evening blue are pleasingly expansive.
