A warmly reassuring rhyming story (with a fun counting element!) about how its ok to need a little alone time, from the author of the award-winning The Littlest Yak. Doug the camel is all alone and sometimes he wonders whether one is enough (it makes playing hide and seek terribly tough). So when at first one, then two, then three, then four more camels turn up (followed by a whole camel herd), Doug delights in the possibilities all these new friends bring. But when Doug is all camelled out from all the excitement and it's time to count down to bedtime, he takes just as much pleasure from the peace of being alone once again. Lu Frasers warm, funny text is a delight to read out loud and is brilliantly illustrated by Sarah Warburton in the first book from this exciting new picture book partnership.
