Description

Celebrate the holidays with Amelia Bedelia! Amelia Bedelia, her friends, and her family wrap it up while honoring the true spirit of holiday giving in this special edition. This funny holiday chapter book is an excellent choice for children who are ready to read independently, and is terrific for building vocabulary.

It’s the holiday season, and Amelia Bedelia doesn’t have enough money to buy presents for anyone. But that won’t stop Amelia Bedelia! This friendship story follows Amelia and her friends as they decide to launch a gift-wrapping business in order to make some extra cash. But wrapping presents with Amelia Bedelia is far from ordinary! And when the business expands to include tree decorating, popcorn popping, snow shoveling, and carol singing, you can bet that the misunderstandings are many!

A humorous story, plenty of misunderstandings, loads of vocabulary and wordplay, and a festive ornament make this an ideal gift book for early independent readers and storytime sharing. Hooray for the holidays!

Amelia Bedelia has been making readers laugh since 1963, when the first Amelia Bedelia book was published. Now, you can meet the young Amelia Bedelia. Come join the fun!

  • Perfect for holiday storytime and family reading
  • Filled with joy, wonder, and the spirit of the season
  • A delightful Christmas gift for readers everywhere
