When Herman Parish continued the Amelia Bedelia books, the results were often mixed. The humor of the original series sometimes became forced, as he had to come up with increasingly complex wordplay mashups to create the humor.
In this volume, he has taken a subtler route, and it works wonderfully.
Amelia's best friend was her neighbor, who has moved away. A new neighbor arrives, and Amelia draws pictures of the things her mother describes, as they are unloaded from the moving van. This points out...more

I am a huge fan of the original Amelia Bedelia stories and now I have read a few of the ones where she is a young girl and they are adorable. This book is a great book to show kids how friendships of all kinds can develope. I also love the pictures that she draws, so creative. This book not only teaches about friendships but also about letting your imagination go and working with that. How great stories/ideas come if you just take the literal sence of things.

cute book read this to my daughter,she loves Amelia Bedelia, got this from the library.
Cute. Not as good as the originals, but it still has the charm.
We love all Amelia Bedelia books!
I like the way Herman Parish has changed Amelia from a bumbling, incompetent, and borderline obnoxious adult to a sweet, outgoing, and confident little girl whose confusion is a product of being young and uninformed, rather than just a gimmick to create silliness. This younger version of Amelia is really appealing, and I think I'd actually like to read some more books about her.
