Horn Book Review

These retitled and resized books feature hand-lettered narratives in Amelia's distinctive, unassuming voice, joined by her creative, colorful marginalia: sketches, asides, and representations of ""taped in"" objects. Funny and endearing. [Review covers these titles: Amelia's Are-We-There-Yet Longest Ever Car Trip, Amelia's Boredom Survival Guide, Amelia's Bully Survival Guide, and Amelia's Notebook.] (c) Copyright 2010.
