Hump: How The Camel Got Its Bump offers a fresh take on Rudyard Kipling's classic tale, with Andrew Manderson's playful rhyming text paired with Isil Gul's distinctive felt craft illustrations.
 
Set in a young world where every creature toils from dawn to dusk, one animal refuses to pull his weight. The Camel meets every request for help with a dismissive "Humph!"—much to the frustration of the other animals and the Man who tends them. His stubbornness eventually draws the attention of a magical Djinn, who bestows upon the Camel a hump as a permanent reminder of his idleness. Yet this apparent punishment proves unexpectedly useful: the hump allows the Camel to work longer stretches without stopping for food, turning consequence into capability.
 
The rhyming narrative makes for lively read-alouds while gently exploring themes of responsibility and the ripple effects of our choices. Gul's textured felt artwork gives the story a warm, tactile quality that sets it apart from more conventional illustrations.
 
A thoughtful adaptation that honors its source material while standing confidently on its own.
