Reader’s Review
A beautiful rendition of a well-known story about a tired camel that is mistreated by its owner, until one day he meets the beloved Prophet of God (s). The author does a particularly good job of describing the feelings of the camel, and the love that exists between the animal and the Prophet. Highly recommended.
To look out for
Little of concern, but the mistreatment of the owner and the sadness of the camel may be disturbing for very young children.
