Amelia Bedelia, the new maid, slightly suggests the famous Mary Poppins, but she makes her entry discreetly through the doorway, on her two feet, instead of blowing in on the wind. Thisis purely a silly book, with no lesson to impart, but it will seem hilarious to young children. --Saturday Review"
