Let’s age ourselves: everyone who grew up with Amelia Bedelia as a literal minded maid, raise your hand. That’s us and… most of you on this app. But your kids, now they get a new Amelia Bedelia! Now she is a child… who has a hard time with idiots and figures of speech. Still very literal minded. Near as we can guess most kids just don’t know anyone with a maid, so the old books don’t click with them. Makes sense. But they were still fun.
