Hilarious! I love how optimistic and enthusiastic she is about jobs she know nothing about. As always, Amelia Bedelia doesn't disappoint!
I used to love these books as a kid. Great for read aloud.
I absolutely adore Amelia Bedelia and her very literal ways! Growing up with her and trying to brainstorm what she could think things meant versus what the real meaning of things were prepared me for my own life. I have a child who has autism and an intellectual disability. He struggles with figurative speech and I feel as if I am better at catching myself when I use speech that isn't literal enough because of all the time I spent with Amelia Bedelia and my imagination.
I have always wished that life wasn't so difficult for her, but I can see how her fictional life can be a great teaching tool for so many to learn about kindness, compassion, figurative vs literal speech, helping others, and so many other wonderful lessons. ❤

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.
