AMELIA BEDELIA
Amelia Bedelia, everyone's favorite maid, always does
exactly what she is told. She takes figurative language literally, and that is what
entertains young readers so. These books are easy enough for the average first - third
grader to read independently, but will be more fun if you read them with your child first
and talk about them.
