A Bad Case of Stripes (Scholastic Bookshelf)

The book arrived in good condition. The children have enjoyed reading it and looking at the colorful illustrations. It also teaches a great lesson about being yourself and not giving in to others ideas of what you should be.

This was my favorite book growing up. The pictures completely captured my attention and I love the major theme in the book- don’t be afraid to love what you love. You don’t want to turn into something you’re not. I purchased this book to give to a child in my life so that they can experience the same joy and wonder that I did growing up.

My mom used to read this book to me when I was a kid. It has some really fascinating imagery, some might find it disturbing, but to me it is just intriguing. There is a lot of body horror in it, but in spite of that, I wouldn't say it isn't child friendly. It's not like there is any gore or anything. I also always thought it had a strong message about enjoying the things you like, even if they aren't popular. I think that is very important in this day and age where sometimes enjoying things that are different from the norm leads to online ridicule. It can be easy to forget that nobody cares that you enjoy Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen outside of randos on the internet who you likely will never interact with. Since this book had such a positive impact on me growing up, I decided to buy it as a gift for one of my baby cousins.

I love this book for children and highly recommend this for parents and early childhood educators.

Bought this for the kids in my classroom, they really enjoyed listening to it and love to look at the pictures. They’re 4 year olds

I used this to help teach moral with my 2nd graders. They enjoyed the story and we had great discussions with it. The illustrations are very vibrant. Great book!

My daughter grew up loving this book. What an adorable story.

I loved this book as a kid and this has quickly become my kids favorite as well
