Once, when the world was new, Camel had no hump. This is the tale of how that changed. A charming retelling of one of Rudyard Kipling’s beloved Just So Stories, specially written for children who are learning to read and beautifully illustrated by John Joven. With puzzles and answers at the back of the book.

The genie because he taught the camel a lesson. I wanted to read it to find out how the camel got the hump. I’d recommend it.

The Camel didn't want to work and kept saying humph so I'm happy the genie gave him a hump and made him work

It was ok. I didn't really get it. It was hard to read using phonics. I would still recommend it.

1. It was an interesting book about how the camel got his hump. 2. The camel was so lazy and whenever the dog, ox and horse asked for help he just said ‘humph’. Hearing the camel repeatedly saying ‘humph’ the genie wished camel a hump. 3. My favourite character is the man. 4. Because it was a fun book. 5 . Yes , definitely
