To work on characterization, we read A Bad Case of Stripes by David Shannon. While reading the story, we focused on physical traits and personality traits. In the story, Camilla Cream is a closeted lover of lima beans and a worrier about other peoples' opinions of her. On the first day of school, Camilla wakes up to find herself completely covered in rainbow stripes! Her skin and appearance constantly change throughout the story until she decides to stay true to herself and tell everyone that she loves lima beans! As you can imagine, Camilla's feelings change just as much as her appearance throughout the story. We created this craft to show Camilla's character traits throughout the story. We looked at how she changed on the outside and on the inside.
