Teaches a real life lesson...and not exactly from "Life Skills" class
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
"Oh Boy, Amelia!" teaches real life lessons in a way young children can relate to, and learn from. Although Cleo is pretending to be dumb so a boy will like her, Amelia knows the real truth: You shouldn't have to pretend to be someone else just for someone else. Also, young children are often intimidated by liking "a girl thing" or "a boy thing". But the real truth is that there is no "girl thing" or "boy thing". There is a "you thing", and that's what YOU like, not what all girls like or what all boys like. This is a great book that teaches lessons in a fun way.
