Reading with Ella - Book 11
Amelia Bedelia & Friends (#1) - Beat the Clock by Herman Parish
The second Amelia Bedelia chapter book that we have read. This time to dig outside. A fun little book and nice to talk about the idea of 100 years ago. Since we were reading it on Thanksgiving, we looked up thanksgiving from 100 years ago, and looked at pictures of the first giant balloons from 1924.
Ella wants to say - I loved the part where they rushed out and started digging, and the part where they found out that there was a time capsule. I loved it when they found the time capsule.
The stories in these books are nice, and I love emphasis this series is putting on Amelia Bedelia's good relationships with her little group of friends. Her name is so annoying to say out loud all the time though, also there's so many friends I don't have enough distinct voices and accents to make them all sound different.
