If you’re a fan of Calvin & Hobbes or the Peanuts, you’ll like this. Amelia is a 9 year old girl living in a small town with her mother and aunt after her parents divorce.
She deals with the usual things like being the the new kid in class, living in a small town (she’s originally from Manhatten) and many of the usual things kids go through.
She makes friends and has adventures much like Calvin did in his day. Instead of a tiger named Hobbes, Amelia has her best friend Reggie, Rhonda (who thinks of as her Arch-Enemy) and a boy they all call Pajama-Man because that’s all he seems to wear.
It’s a fun read and the illustrations are colorful and full of expression. There are three books available so far with more on the way.
Is it Right for Kids: Oh Yes, this is a good kids book for ages 9 and up. Kids younger then 7 or 8 won’t really get some of the story lines and references but might like to read just the same. Older kids will enjoy it as well and I think even parents will enjoy reading this like the enjoyed reading the Peanuts and Calvin and Hobbes. A guilty pleasure.
