America’s favorite housekeeper is at it again, what will happen now? Follow her adventures as she prepares everything for the Rogers in anticipation of a visit from Great-Aunt Myra.

Thank you Amelia Bedelia by Peggy Parish, illustrated by Barbara Siebel Thomas based on the original drawings by Fritz Siebel

Mrs. Rogers is all worked up. Great-Aunt Myra is coming today! “We need everything to be just right, we’ve been trying to get her to visit us for years.”

You can imagine the results as she is directed to strip the sheets. (she tears them into strips)

Next she is supposed to check Mr. Rogers shirts that have just arrived from the laundry – she unfolds each shirt and counts the buttons, collars and cuff to verify that they are all there! Then she adds red paint to make them checkered - “Wouldn’t it be easier to buy they already checked?” she asks.

She removes spots from the wrong dress and strings the green beans and scatters roses all over the room.

Great-Aunt Myra has arrived and all the worries are set aside as she serves them a wonderful hot apple pie!

Isn’t Amelia amazing? What will she do next? Follow along in the other Amelia Bedelia books.
