Amelia Badelia

Parrish, Peggy. (1963) Amelia Badelia. New York: Harper Collins

Amelia Badelia is a made for Mr. and Mrs. Rogers. She is quite comical and doesn't really understand her instructions. She does silly things like when playing baseball and told to run home she literally runs all the way home. When told to dress the turkey she sews the turkey an outfit. The Amelia Badelia series has many many books to its name. This is the first in the series and excellent for enticing young readers. Series are always good because just like a good t.v. show the kids want to keep reading about their favorite characters. Amelia Badelia books are for very early readers.
