Nice little Amelia story about her desire to have the latest shoe trend. The problem is her mother won't buy them for her, rather challenging Amelia to earn the money herself. Amelia tries walking dogs, but there are disastrous results. Finally, she hatches the idea to use her talents and sell art cards.

An interesting, charmingly illustrated story that will appeal to the late primary/early junior girl.

I love this book! I can read this over and over and over again without getting tired of it! 😜 I especially like the part when Amelia makes a lemonade stand! 🤣

This book definitely inspired me to start a 'business' of selling toys on the playground at recess for quarters. Did get in trouble.
