From the Caldecott Honor-winning and bestselling picture book creator David Shannon, comes a fun story about finding courage and staying true to yourself!

"What we have here is a bad case of stripes. One of the worst I've ever seen!"

Camilla Cream loves lima beans, but she never eats them. Why? Because the other kids in her school don't like them. And Camilla Cream is very, very worried about what other people think of her. In fact, she's so worried that she's about to break out in... a bad case of stripes!
