"Pamela Camel" book review

Pamela Camel by Bill Peet
Easy/ Picture Book

Reviewed by Ethan

What's this story about? " A camel ran away from the circus because she was not treated nicely. Then she stopped a train from wrecking and everyone was nice to her." 

This book has some name-calling by people when Pamela can't perform circus tricks like the other animals, which Ethan didn't like, leading to a 2/5 rating for this book.
