Summary: Remembering a book when it was funny and still is today
Review: Amelia Bedelia was written by Peggy parish. The seriousness of these books are to funny. Amelia Bedelia is my favorite character because she is unique in many ways. She has the quality of bringing happiness to your family. I am sure these books will make you laugh because of how she acts. In the book Amelia Bedelia makes her job more difficult then it seems. But one thing I like about her is she always has a smile on her face. The qualities she has are cooking, and making sure everything gets done. This is why Amelia Bedelia is a great person and story.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: funny
Review: Amelia is an idiot. She reads things or hears figures of speech and takes everything so literally that she ends up making a fool of her self. In result you learn nothing but you just learn to laugh and learn not to be like Amelia. Reading a book and laughing sometimes is all you need, so enjoy this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amelia Bedelia did really funny things.
Review: I am a seven year old reader who enjoyed this book very much. My Mom helped me type this review. Amelia Bedelia got mixed up on the chores she was supposed to do. She dressed a chicken in clothes! She put powder on furniture to dust it! They were angry with her at first for making such a mess of things, but then they tasted her pie and they thought it was great. They wanted Amelia Bedelia to stay but they made sure they gave careful instructions.I think anyone would enjoy reading about the funny things she does.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A "must read" for children (hopefully with their parents)
Review: I believe Amelia Bedelia is one of the most wonderful children books. Small wonder it has been printed and reprinted for so many years.

I was this past weekend with two boys, ages five and seven, on a car ride.

While sitting with them and trying to make conversation, I remembered the long lost book, Amelia Bedelia.

I I had read it with my own daughter, many years ago.

Even though the two boys had not read the book, I explained to them some of the things that Amelia Bedelia used to do when left alone in the house.

We spent the rest of the ride with them thinking of "other" things Amelia Bedelia would be capable of doing.

Those two young minds were working overtime trying to figure all kinds of "do as told" (literal) things that Amelia might do.

Not for a second they wondered "are we there yet?" And we all laughed and had a wonderful time.

This is why I came tonight to amazon.com to get this two little ones a copy of the book.

I know they will get many hours of entertainment reading and talking about the book.

I don't think too many children books are able to do that! And I also know that I will be back at amazon.com getting other books on the series to give to children in our family. It is a wonderful way to encourage reading and thinking.

Children today, when faced with so much television and other media, can use more of both thinking and reading.

Especially while having a great time!

Summary: The Amelia Bedelia review
Review: I like every thing about the book. I like Amelia Bedelia becuse she's funny and does everything she's told but the wrong way! Sometime's Amelia Bedelia surprises the Rogers, especially by doing stuff like changing the towels...but with scissors! She also makes good surprises for them. That way she is able to stay! I hope that you will enjoy reading the book! :)

Summary: Amelia Bedelia literally does everything on her list of jobs
Review: Learning to read means learning new words and when you learn new words you need to learn what those new words mean and once you learn what words mean they should continue to mean what they mean because otherwise how would we talk to each other? Or, to quote Humpty Dumpty, "I mean what I say is not the same thing as I say what I mean." That is why "Amelia Bedelia" is such a great little story. Author Peggy Parish knows that words do not always mean what you think they should mean. So when Amelia Bedelia shows up for the first day of work and Mrs. Rogers gives her a list of things to do, Amelia Bedelia reads the list (after making a delicious lemon-meringue pie first) and does exactly what the list tells her to do. If the list says "Put the lights out when you finish in the living room," then Amedlia Bedelia carefully unscrew each light bulb and hangs them on the clothes line to air them out. Children and former children alike will laugh as Amedlia Bedlia literally goes through the list of instructions left by Mrs. Rogers. The illustrations by Fritz Siebel are almost as good as the pictures in our mind of Amelia Bedelia changing the towels in the green bathroom or dusting the furniture, plus Siebel gives the rosy-cheecked maid the same great smile on every single picture. Once you finish there book there are more literary adventures of the literal Amelia Bedelia and if you like these books then you should also check out "The King Who Rained" by Fred Gwynne and advance to the joy of homophones.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A totally AWESOME book!
Review: Many people do not know about or understand autism. But Amelia Bedelia is a prime example of someone with autism. When I try to explain to my daughter's friends and my friends what living with autism means, I recommend that they read one of these books. They are light-hearted and hilarious but yet represent autism in a very real way.
