LOOKIT: THE LAST ARTICLE OF 2006! Or the first article of 2007, depending upon when you read this and when I get the content pages uploaded, since there’s a pretty good chance that that won’t happen until after the big 12:00 on the EC of the USA. I guess it’s already 2007 in the UK. Does it really matter? HAPPY NEW YEAR, MINNA-SAN!
Anyway, to ring in the new year and say goodbye to 2006 and the winter holiday season, we have a summary review and commentary of Merry Christmas, Amelia Bedelia, a children’s book featuring a sexy and extremely literal-minded maid. Something tells me that this character is in the wrong country — I wonder what would have happened if she’d ended up working in Japan instead of America. I doubt that a book chronicling those adventures would be appropriate for children! 😐
Best wishes for 2007, everyone.
I loved reading Amelia Bedelia stories as a kid! Like the driving test where she thinks there’s a bear coming when Mr. Rogers tells her to “bear left”, and the one where she’s playing baseball and makes off with all the plates. Never saw this particualr one before, though.
