Amelia Bedelia Cleans Up

Amelia Bedelia clears out a vacant lot to build a clubhouse in the New York Times–bestselling series about the childhood of America’s favorite housekeeper!

Amelia Bedelia and her friends need a clubhouse for their new Explorers’ Club. One day they discover an empty lot with a huge tree right in the middle of it. It’s the perfect spot to build a cool tree house for club headquarters. The lot is a big mess, so Amelia Bedelia, her friends, and their parents pitch in and clean it up. They discover:

1. Lots of old tires
2. Tons of junk
3. Trash and recyclables
4. Stray (but really cute) cats
5. That you can’t build a tree house in a lot that doesn’t belong to you!

Uh-oh! Will Amelia Bedelia and her friends ever get the clubhouse of their dreams?
