Calling Doctor Amelia Bedelia — Herman Parish

Learn to read with the classic Amelia Bedelia!

Ever since Amelia Bedelia made her debut in 1963, young readers have been laughing out loud at the antics of this literal-minded but charming housekeeper.

The doctor is out! But Amelia Bedelia is ready to help a crowd of grouchy patients. Along the way she doses out some of the best medicine of all -- laughter, of course!

"No child can resist Amelia [Bedelia] and her literal trips through the minefield of the English language -- and no adult can fail to notice that she's usually right when she's wrong." -- The New York Times Book Review
