Illustrated by
Scott Mack.
In a Kenyan orphanage, Muktar, a Somali refugee, daydreams about camels and his family's "old ways." When a librarian arrives with books carried by three camels, Muktar helps tend the creatures. Dramatic desert-hued paintings illustrate the story. A map of Africa and an author's note provide some context, though the story also stands on its own.
