In this vibrant edition, newly recolored by the original illustrator, Amelia Bedelia's job search gets her into another 'homonym hot seat because she does what she's told'literally. For example, she gets a job as a file clerk, only she takes out a nail file and shreds the papers she's supposed to file away! The comic convolutions are endless and endlessly enjoyable.''The Baton Rouge Advocate Magazine.
