It's a home run for Amelia Bedelia!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
America's favorite sport will never be the same again, now that Amelia Bedelia has been called in to substitute for another player. If you've read any of Amelia's other books, you can just imagine what she will do for uniforms, stealing bases, running home and more. Baseball will be revolutionized, and young readers will be entertained from first page to last! The wonderful illustrations bring the humor to life. Highly recommended!
Great Baseball Story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
In this edition of Amelia Bedelia, Peggy Parish has done another wonderful job at telling a wonderful story. Amelia Bedelia is making an attempt to play baseball, and she has managed to take the lessons literally, as always. She learns stealing bases are okay and putting players out. This is a favorite in my household, and we laughed at Amelia Bedelia's attempts of playing baseball.Our favorite part was when she hit the winning run, 'stole' every single base along the way, and she ran home like everyone told her to with all the bases. The kids were wonderful in this story and patient, and it was a fantastic read.I recommend the Amelia Bedelia books for every household. Amelia Bedelia is a fun character, and it will make the kids laugh.Joy.

Great Baseball Book

I came across this book while looking for books about baseball for my preschooler. Not much to choose from in this niche market, but this book is a hit! My son thinks it's funny when Amelia Bedelia "steals the bases" and "runs home". Wish there were more books like this!
Fun for Adults and Children Alike
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
As a child, I read many Amelia Bedelia books and never tired of them. As an adult, I am looking forward to sharing so many of the stories with my own child. The fact that Amelia takes everything so literally allows for countless scenarios which children (and adults) will find hilarious. Whether "stealing home plate" or "dressing the turkey," Amelia always surprises and delights. Children will be begging parents to read these stories again and again. We can all use good, clean humor in our lives. The time to instill that love of laughter should begin in childhood, and the Amelia Bedelia books will certainly delight children everywhere.
