I have a new favorite Christmas book!!! Humphrey’s First Christmas Written and Illustrated by Carol Heyer.
This story tells us about the camel that carried the gifts from the three wise men to baby Jesus. As Humphrey the camel is carrying the gifts he is very unhappy and complaining about being cold without a blanket. Even after Humphrey gets a new blanket to cover his back he is still complaining about the heavy load he is carrying. Until the make it to their destination and Humphrey gladly gives HIM his most dearest possession.
The book is beautifully illustrated! The boys (and me) giggled out loud while reading the book, yet the true meaning of Christmas shines though! You really need to add this book to your bookshelf too.
