對語文解讀能力異於常人的Amelia Bedelia，這次要跟小朋友們一起打棒球，
會鬧出什麼笑話？”You must step in to meet the ball你必需移動身體才能打到球”，但Amelia Bedelia卻用身體去打球，痛的哇哇叫，原來棒球一點也不好玩！”Throw the ball to the first base. Put Dick out.把球傳回一壘，讓Dick出局”，可愛的Amelia硬是把Dick抓起來，丟到場外去！最誇張的莫過於”Steal the base盜壘”，Amelia就這麼硬生生地把壘包偷走，一場球賽打的如此亂七八糟。還好善長烹飪的Amelia，最後還是能以美味的烤餅乾與一顆純真熱誠的心，贏得大家的友誼。本書不但可以認識棒球運動的術語，還有解答雙關語的樂趣，配上有聲CD，讓英語閱讀充滿無數樂趣！
