Picture Book Review: First Apple Pie

Amelia Bedelia is famous for her apple pies - this is the story of her first pie, which saves the day.

I love these new adventures of Amelia Bedelia as a kid. It's lovely to see her with the same personality traits for a different generation. Plus, this is a fun fall book about leaves, apples, and pie. 

Library Recommendation: A great fall book for your collection - and a lovely series for your picture book collection.

Kids Review: Amelia Bedelia Means Business

 * First book in a new series *

When Suzanne shows up on the last day of school with a brand new bike, Amelia Bedelia has bike envy.

When she talks about the new bike at dinner, her parents come up with an idea. They will pay for the half of the bike, if Amelia Bedelia can pay for the other half. After a handshake and a hug, Amelia Bedelia gets to work.

She finds a job at a dinner - working as a waitress in training. Only that doesn't turn out so well. She tries a lemonade stand, but that doesn't work either. With all the lemons leftover, she starts baking tarts...and that doesn't turnout quite as expected.

My Thoughts: I've always loved Amelia Bedelia and her literal ways. She's been a favorite of mine since childhood and I love seeing her as a kid. She still makes laugh. I'm happy that new readers are discovering her! A fun start to a new series.
