Raja's Pet Camel

“The exotic setting of Rajasthan, which is located in the Thar desert in northwest India, exposes readers to a different culture. The pictures accurately depict life in Rajasthan. This read-together book shows readers that people from different cultures have strikingly familiar emotional and familial similarities.” City Book Review“A thoroughly charming and wonderfully fun picture book for children ages 5-8, Raja’s Pet Camel: The Magic of Hope by author/storyteller Anita Nahla Amin and artist/illustrator Parwnder Singh will prove to be an enduringly popular addition to family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library collections for young readers.” C hildren’s Bookwatch
