I was excited and honored to see this new article by ANN CANNON in the THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE: Ann Cannon: A Holiday Tradtition Worth Reading About.  She picked HUMPHREY'S FIRST CHRISTMAS  as one of her five favorite books!! Here is the paragraph that mentions her favorites!

"Over the years, a few clear personal favorites have emerged: The Story of Holly and Ivy by Rumer Godden, A Letter to Santa Claus by Rose Impey and Sue Porter, Wombat Divine by Mem Fox, The Little Fir Tree by Margaret Wise Brown and HUMPHREY'S FIRST CHRISTMAS by Carol Heyer."

I also wanted to mention when HUMPHREY'S FIRST CHRISTMAS was originally launched ANN CANNON picked it as one of the new books she would add to her ever growing collection!  Of course here's my favorite line from the article! :0)

"And I'm not sure I can't resist the divinely silly "Humphrey's First Christmas" by Carol Heyer — a story about a camel's journey to the stable and the surprise he finds waiting there.

REVIEW:   "CAROL HEYER’S BOOKS RISE ABOVE THE REST WITH HER LUSH ATTENTION TO DETAIL, BOTH IN HER ILLUSTRATIONS AND WORDS.  LITTLE SHEPHERD’S CHRISTMAS IS REVERENT AND WARM, HOWEVER PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS WILL CELEBRATE THAT IT’S NOT JUST ANOTHER ACCOUNTING OF THE FIRST CHRISTMAS.  BOYS AND ACTIVE GIRLS, ESPECIALLY, WILL IDENTIFY WITH THIS YOUNG SHEPHERD’S NEED TO PROVE THAT HIS NAME, REUEL, DOES NOT MEAN “TINY GRAY MOUSE THAT FOLLOWS HIS BROTHERS EVERYWHERE.”  THERE’S ADVENTURE AND ACTION, TOO, AND THE STORY’S HEARTWARMING CONCLUSION BRINGS REUEL TO BABY JESUS’ SIDE AT THE MANGER – AND AN UNEXPECTED ANSWER TO HIS QUEST.  PERFECT FOR ENGAGING THE ATTENTION OF EVEN THE WIGGLIEST OF LISTENERS."
