Review by Horn Book Review

Parish's hilarious tale marks its fiftieth anniversary with this new edition, which includes Siebel's original comical illustrations. Though Amelia Bedelia's look has changed greatly over her storied book career, the kid-appeal of her well-intentioned mishaps hasn't waned. Commemorative back matter highlights the origins of the series and the lives of Amelia's creators, making this a worthy addition to any permanent collection. (c) Copyright 2013.
