This book felt too unrealistic to be funny. Also I miss the other illustrator.

I loved loved loved Amelia Bedelia as a little girl, but I haven't read any AB books in a long, long time. Who doesn't love Amelia Bedelia? She is so happy and tries so hard and does everything she's told. Literally. Hilarious and endearing, Amelia Bedelia is fired from her housekeeping job and sets off to find other work. She finds lots of jobs but none that want to keep her. Amelia doesn't understand hwy--she does everything they ask her to. But maybe there is one job that's just about perfect for Amelia.

These books are adorable and a great way to discuss language and meaning with kids. :D They have the benefit of being pretty funny, too! Definitely classics in my opinion, I hope that libraries still carry them.
