Come Back, Amelia Bedelia (An I Can Read! Picture Book)

by Peggy Parish, Wallace Tripp

Overview

Amelia Bedelia is always getting herself into trouble! When Mrs. Rogers asks for cereal with her coffee, Amelia Bedelia does exactly what she is told; she puts cereal in the coffee. Mrs. Rogers is so angry she fires her! Poor Amelia Bedelia must look for another job. At each place she tries--the beauty shop, the dress shop, and the doctor's office--Amelia Bedelia keeps getting things mixed up. Is there anything Amelia Bedelia can do well?

Bright illustrations by Wallace Tripp will have beginning readers coming back again and again to this hilarious story about this ever-literal but much loved housekeeper.
