The Baby Camel and the Christmas Star (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781919269306)

Follow the journey of a little camel with a big heart in The Baby Camel and the Christmas Star - a tender and inclusive retelling of the Nativity story through the curious eyes of a baby camel.

When he spots a bright star in the sky, the baby camel sets off across the desert to discover its meaning. Along the way, he meets merchants, caravans, and at last the three Wise Men on their way to Bethlehem. Tired but determined, the baby camel finally arrives at the stable where he finds not only the newborn King, but also his worried mother who has followed the star to bring him safely home.

Written and illustrated with love by Tiina Hoddy, a kindergarten teacher and children's author, this story gently weaves faith, wonder, and inclusivity into a heartwarming Christmas tale. Children will delight in the colorful illustrations, hidden animals to "spot and find," and the message that every journey - no matter how small - matters to God.

Perfect for ages 4-8, this book makes a beautiful Christmas gift for families, schools, and Sunday schools. It's a story to read aloud, treasure together, and remember long after the holidays are over.
