Amelia Bedelia & Friends #2 - Herman Parish
"Remember, people! said Ms. Garcia, Amelia Bedelia’s science teacher at Oak Tree Elementary.
All great inventors think outside the box!"
Amelia Bedelia looked at her friend Joy and shrugged. Teachers were always telling them to think outside the box. Amelia Bedelia rarely stood in a box to think, and neither did any of her friends. But Amelia Bedelia had also never invented anything famous—at least not yet. Not a lightbulb, like Thomas Edison . . . or shampoo made out of peanuts, like George Washington Carver . . . or a chocolate chip cookie, like Ruth Wakefield . . . or even a pair of earmuffs, like Chester Greenwood.
An inventor starts with a problem and then finds a solution that doesn’t already exist,
Ms. Garcia continued. So let’s think about that for a minute. What is a problem that you would like to solve?
Amelia Bedelia’s friend Cliff waved his hand. Too much homework!
he shouted.
Some of the other kids groaned and agreed.
Okay, so what could you invent to help with that?
asked Ms. Garcia.
A machine that does my homework for me?
Cliff suggested.
Fun! But would that solve the whole problem?
Ms. Garcia asked. You wouldn’t have to spend so much time doing homework, true . . . but you also wouldn’t learn anything and then you’d be stuck at Oak Tree Elementary forever.
Like our big oak tree out front,
said Penny.
Can someone come up with an invention to help Cliff out?
asked Ms. Garcia.
Joy had an idea. How about a helmet that beams homework directly from your head onto the paper? Then you’d still learn stuff, but you wouldn’t spend so much time writing everything down. You could do your homework while you were having fun or even when you’re asleep!
Excellent idea!
said Ms. Garcia. Anybody else have a problem they’d like us to solve with an invention?
I hate lima beans!
said Penny called out. And my mom makes me eat them.
Oh, a lot of people have that problem. What’s your invention?
asked Ms. Garcia.
Penny drummed her fingers on her desk. A special ring that converts lima beans into chocolate!
she said. You could use it right at the table.
Fantastic! Amelia Bedelia, what about you? Do you have a problem you’d like to solve?
said Ms. Garcia.
Amelia Bedelia thought about this.
Mostly she figured that her life was pretty good. Sure, some days she would rather stay home and bake than go to school . . . but then she thought about how much fun it was to see her friends. Some days her mother did indeed serve lima beans for dinner . . . but she usually made Amelia Bedelia eat only a bite or two.
But there was one thing. . . .
My dog, Finally, poops in our backyard,
she said. It’s my job to pick it up. And it’s gross!
The class laughed. Amelia Bedelia laughed too. It was funny . . . but it was also true! She knew it was part of taking care of a dog. She loved Finally. She loved all animals.
Most pet owners have that same problem,
Ms. Garcia
