The charming tale told in Amal the Thirsty Gamal is for every young person who might be anxious about how they are viewed by those around them (and yes, camels care about that too!). For so long, our little hero has been hearing taunts and jeers and thinking negative things about himself, his looks, and especially his little hump. But—oh, brace yourselves! — because Wise Men are traveling with Amal’s special caravan, and when one of them speaks up around the campfire one night, everything changes for little Amal!





Meet the Author:

AMAL THE THIRSTY GAMAL Book Tour Giveaway


 My Review: 

Amal the Thirsty Gamal: A Christmas Tale  is a wonderful book for young readers by Robert A. Schorr.  I love that it teaches some wonderful life lessons that so many – young or old – could learn from. Little Amal is needing to find out who he really is. He is being bullied by his peers and has to learn not to listen to the negativity around him. It all changes for him when he has the chance to go on a journey with wise men. I thought this was a beautiful and inspiring tale and will enjoy reading it over and over with my young ones. 

Amal the Thirsty Gamal: A Christmas Tale is illustrated by the talents of Kristina Koontz. The pictures perfectly follow the story. The younger readers will be captivated and be able to hold their attention and continue reading to find out what happens all the way to the end. 

Amal the Thirsty Gamal: A Christmas Tale is getting a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for young readers who are between the ages of three and seven. I look forward to reading more books like this from Robert A. Schorr in the future. It would make a great addition to the local or school library and even in a little ones’ classroom for story time.

I received a hard cover copy of Amal the Thirsty Gamal: A Christmas Tale from the publisher. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
