Today is Thursday.
Amelia Bedelia's father suggested her to decorate her car like a lemon, so she could make it as an advertisement of her lemon tart because her tart business looked easier to earn money. He told her that to win a bike was a long shot, which means it was very hard to succeed. She told her dad that she wasn't going to play a basketball match. She prepared a few of lemon tarts to hand out to the people who would watch the parade.
When Amelia Bedelia rode her lemon tart bike to the parade, she felt it was impossible to win the bike. Suzanne's bike, who was her classmate, was decorated as a rainbow bike, which was very beautiful. And the judge of the parade was the manager of the car market who would never let her win.
And at the same time, there were a pets parade there too. Many kinds of decorated pets, most of which were dogs, were in the parade. Those dogs liked the smell of the tarts so much that they began to chase Bedelia. What strange thing would Amelia Bedelia do?
