Amelia Bedelia was the creation of an elementary teacher, Peggy Parish, in 1962. The character, Amelia Bedelia, is a house keeper and is forever mixing up instructions given her because of idioms and the double meaning of homonyms within the English language. Children love the adventures of Amelia Bedelia! I don't have any Becassine figures, but a favorite in my Q collection is one of the HB Quimper yellow with green pok-a-dot series – a female figure with a basket in each arm. I like to keep little blooms from the garden in her baskets and refer to her as Becassine.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873375271470225199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428454997348919713.post-5178380967129164842009-04-17T15:56:00.000+02:002009-04-17T15:56:00.000+02:00Gay, I like Becassine too, only have a little stuf...Gay, I like Becassine too, only have a little stuffed one, a few books.
