Is there anything better than Amelia Bedelia?  I think not.  It's the perfect blend of entertainment and learning to distinguish between literal and figurative meaning--not to mention the not-so-subtle jab at politicians failing to keep their promises.  And of course, Amelia Bedelia takes the city by a landslide--but not literally!  With entertaining illustrations and an optimistic storyline and resolution, Amelia Bedelia 4 Mayor is a fun read for all ages.

Should be required reading for all current and aspiring politicians. Amelia Bedelia does what she is told and knows how to keep a promise. Amen.
