Amelia Bedelia's literalness causes some problems when Mr. Rogers takes her out to practice her driving. 'A familiar heroine takes an unfamiliar seat in Good Driving, Amelia Bedelia. Herman Parish, nephew of Amelia's creator, Peggy Parish, keeps the wordplay in high gear....Lynn Sweat's bright and jaunty illustrations, meanwhile, suit the action to a (Model?) T.'--Publishers Weekly. America's favorite housekeeper has returned with all her talent for misinterpretation intact. If someone tells her to watch out for the fork in the road--well, she's heard of needles in haystacks, so why not a fork in the road. Amelia Bedelia, unself-conscious, literal-minded, and hilarious as ever, continues to delight readers. Watercolor illustrations. |
