I had the privilege of reviewing another great children’s eBook from Julia Dweck with my little girl!! It’s Humpfree: The Humpless Camel.” This one was just released last week and is such fun! Just click here to find it on Amazon.
Now that we’ve been reading more eBooks on the iPad than regular books, my preschooler is thrilled when I pulled it out and ask if she wants to read a new story. And, this story did not disappoint!
“So Humpfree set out all alone
To find two humps to call his own.
Two red balloons, he quickly spied
Above a bench where they’d been tied.”
Humpfree: The Humpless Camel is the story of poor Humpfree who doesn’t have any humps on his back like the other camels and is “unhappy with his humpless, bumpless back.” He goes on a mission to find himself some humps so he can be like all the other camels.
“So Humpfree set out all alone

Above a bench where they’d been tied.”
This was such a silly story. My preschooler thought all the things Humpfree tried to make humps were hilarious. We’ve read it at least a half dozen times since we first downloaded it. It’s another fun and entertaining story from Julia Dweck. Her books always have bright and colorful, fun illustrations as does Humpfree. And, one of my favorite things about reading her books out loud is the rhyming style just flows so easily.
The author, Julia Dweck, has several other eBooks as well. I’ve read a few to my daughter, and they are all as silly and fun as this one! You can see all her eBooks on Amazon. Also, check out her web page and you’ll find lots more – Jule Loves 2 Write
Like her other books, the author includes fun facts at the end of the book. This time they are all about camels, including Flat Back camels who don’t have humps! I have to admit this is one of my favorite parts of her books. Who knew there were camels with no humps? I sure didn’t!
