Amelia's Diary, Our Childhoods
Earhart. Bones. Thermopolis. Bedelia. In the great tradition of people named Amelia, one diarist from the mid-1990s stands alone. With her handy composition notebook, Amelia could keep track of the latest gossip, her family’s major move, and her growing interest in drawing noses. For this episode, we re-read Amelia's Notebook (1995) by Amelia (she's like Cher) and the one and only Marissa Moss. In addition to a careful study of each beautifully illustrated notebook page, we also plunged back into some of the vintage Amelia material published in the American Girl magazine. Of course, this episode also covers springtime treats, the early 2000s American Girl website, and an Amelia quiz. Grab an AOL disc, some colored pencils, and get ready for a dive in to a series of notebooks you have not thought about in 20 years but won’t soon forget.
