Calling Doctor Amelia Bedelia

It’s a fun twist on her classic character, but I wonder what made the author choose this profession for her. How does it add to her charming personality?

Her misunderstandings always lead to funny situations, but I also wondered if that might teach kids about thinking outside the box or cause confusion.

The jokes seem simple enough for children but clever enough to entertain parents or caregivers reading along. What’s your favorite funny moment?
