Definitely gotta love Amelia Bedelia and her way with words and literalism. Now to be able to have her in early chapter books is just fabulous. What could be better for early readers to really push their vocabulary in learning how things mean more than just one concept. Amelia Bedelia Means Business is the first chapter book for Amelia Bedelia soon to be followed by [b:Amelia Bedelia Chapter Book #2: Amelia Bedelia Unleashed|15818208|Amelia Bedelia Chapter Book #2 Amelia Bedelia Unleashed|Herman Parish|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1349815692s/15818208.jpg|21545816]. It's tons of fun! Reading out loud or alone, it is sure to promote giggles and grins. It's educational for words, but it is also good in influencing children to earn something for themselves as well as making friends. I'm delighted with this first jump for Amelia Bedelia and I am sure that this is a great start to her novel anniversary!
*Thanks to HarperCollins for providing an ARC for review. I enjoyed the writing in the advanced copy and the sample artwork was cute. I really look forward to seeing the final product as I'm sure it will be adorable and fun!*
