I love the Amelia Bedelia Birthday ideas. The kids will love this. Thanks for all the great information.
I like the Amelia Bedelia party and activities the best. Wow!
Excuse Me I’m Trying to Read could have been the name of a book about me as a child and my love for books and reading is one of the things I try to instill in my students. Freda
