I Can’t Take You Anywhere!

Amy Audrey Perkins’s parents like to stay at home. And that’s no wonder. Because when Amy Audrey goes out, she can’t go anywhere without spilling something, falling down, or generally embarrassing any family member who she happens to be with.

Can Amy Audrey avoid disaster at Aunt Linda’s wedding? Aunts, uncles, Mom and Dad soon see that Amy Audrey can behave just as “perfectly” as they do. And that they, too, can behave just as clumsily as she does.

Phyllis Reynolds Naylor writes an amusing and supportive tale for kids who, like Amy Audrey, can’t seem to get out of anybody’s way, and assures them that everyone can be clumsy at one time or another.
