Each evening, Octavia and I read a book together. Her favorite books are about a silly lady named Amelia Bedelia. Even her name is silly! We laughed at all of the stories and the crazy things that Amelia Bedelia would do.
Octavia was so excited when I told her that I have my own published story books, too! She said that she plans to go to the library after I go back home and plans to read about more of my adventures. She also told me that her cousin, Lily Rose, got to meet someone like me, but she was called Flat Olivia and was from Sparta, Illinois. We looked it up together on the map. We found out that Sparta was home to an artist named Roscoe Misselhorn. He was a local artist who gained fame through his sketches of Illinois and Missouri historical locations. He is often called the Norman Rockwell of the Midwest. Very cool!
