Amelia Bedelia goes to school and mixes up just about everything in this funny book about the childhood of the iconic character.

In the first book in the nationally bestselling series about the childhood of America''s favorite literal-minded housekeeper, Amelia Bedelia is sure that she will absolutely love school—after all, what''s not to love?

Still, friendships are formed, lessons are learned, and projects are completed, and through it all Amelia Bedelia''s teacher, Mrs. Edwards, offers gentle guidance and an open heart.
