Assisting with the production production of the book were Newcastle artist Jim Noble who illustrated each page, and various friends and neighbors of the Ewerts who helped with typesetting typesetting and layout. "The whole project was developed right in our home," explained Kathy Ewert. "But we couldn't have finished without the aid of about 15 dedicated people." Now in its final stage of production, "Camel Boy" should be ready for sale by the end of the month. "We are hoping that local service clubs and youth groups will be interested in selling copies for us," said Mrs. Ewert. "Two hundred copies have been ordered."
