Amelia Bedelia Joins the Club (I Can Read Book 1)
K-Gr 2—Young Amelia Bedelia's classmates usually get along, but not when it rains. Then two clubs form—the Puddle Jumpers and the Puddle Stompers. Each wants Amelia to be part of their group, but in joining one she will upset friends in the other. What will she do? Her compromising solution is a good lesson in unity. The audiobook is read with great enthusiasm by Christine Ebersole, who creates different voices for each character. This would make a nice pick for listening centers, or a good discussion starter about cliques and how to avoid them.—Teresa Bateman, Brigadoon Elementary, Federal Way, WA
