Rating: Summary: Amelia Bedelia and the Surprise Sower Review: Amelia Bedelia and the Surprise Shower, is a wonderful child's book, mainly read for and to 6-8 year olds. When Amelia and her cousin Alcolu is told about the "surprise shower" Mrs.Rogers is having for Ms.Alma they were confused, and then they realized, that a surprise shower is where friends "shower the special someone with gifts for the occasion. So of course Amelia and Alcolu had a gift too. The motto of this story is "its ok to be yourself, even if being yourself means strange and comfusing". I recommend this book to any child, its fun and easy to read.
Rating: Summary: 4 1/2* Chocolate Fish and Planted Prunes: Amelia is Back! Review: Amelia Bedelia, a young housekeeper, encounters the ambiguities of the spoken word, with hilarious results. Her problem? She takes words too literally: When asked to "prune the hedge," she and her cousin stick prunes on all the branches. A request to "scale and ice" some freshly caught fish results in her weighing them, and then frosting the fish with chocolate icing! And when she's asked to help give Miss Alma surprise shower. . .well, you can probably imagine her interpretation.Despite Amelia's well-intentioned miscues, everything ends happily, maybe even better than if she had understood everything as intended. This is one of the best in the Amelia Bedelia series, with lots of fun wordplay and an interesting story.
Rating: Summary: Sweet Amelia Bedelia Review: I am not a huge fan of the books, but I do like to read about the things she does. It is quite humerous to read she does things literally. Quite genius of the writer to come up with such a wonderful and well-meaning character. I love the fact that Amelia Bedelia takes every situation in stride and does exactly as she is told. Amelia Bedelia (I write her name fully because Peggy Parish uses her full name throughout the book) in this read becomes the life of the party. Of course, she doesn't mean to, but she and Alcolu makes the surprise shower exactly into that. A big surprise!! It is not one of my favorite Amelia Bedelia books, but it does not fall short of who this lovely character is: sweet Amelia Bedelia. Enjoy. Joy

Rating: Summary: To Dump For Me Review: The Amelia Bedelia series book Amelia Bedelia and The Suprise Shower from a 4 year olds perspective was a funny and entertaining book. She is told to do something and she literally does it a quote form the book "Amelia Bedelia do run over this with an iron." Amelia Bedelia got the iron and ran over the table cloth with the iron in her hand. Amelia Bedelia is a great series for younger kids and a good way to teach them to read.
