Milly is a three-humped camel that comes to visit a family one day and decides to stay for good. She has three humps and wears three sneakers and one high-heeled shoe. Milly makes herself at home, even though she should be in the desert.

Milly the camel does many things that camels don't normally do. She speaks and reads picture books; she wears a bathrobe and naps with a teddy bear on the bottom bunk. She loves to eat toast and jelly—supplied, of course, by Mom. Milly even drives herself to the mall, but who knows what a camel goes shopping for?

In this whimsical, silly story with bold, colorful illustrations, an unusual camel makes life interesting for one special family.
