This is one of my favorite childhood books and one I've read many many times. 

This book has Amelia Bedelia learning to play baseball and help out the neighborhood boys, but, as in typical Amelia Bedelia style, chaos ensues in the process. 

This book never fails to make me laugh and the illustrations are a lovely addition to show the shenanigans play out as you read. 

Definitely one I'll reread over and over again.
