Using simple text and colorful pictures, this book provides young readers with the physical characteristic, habitat, food, and life cycle of the camel. The habitat section includes a map of the Eastern Hemisphere.  Glossary terms are in red.  The way the glossary term ruminants is used in the text leads the reader to believe that it means “eats lots of food at once.” Quick Stats section at end of the book visually and numerically compares the camel’s height as shorter than a door and its weight as the same as a soda machine.  Contains a Table of Contents, Glossary, and Index.
