Amelia Bedelia by Peggy Parish
2.0

I'd like to think of this as malicious compliance meets housework, but let's face it, Amelia's probably not bright enough for that. Not really that entertaining, and stretching credulity at points I think (putting the lightbulbs outside, for example), but two things redeem it: the lemon meringue pie, because no-one who bakes well can be all bad. And the drawing of the dressed chicken in its little box, which got a genuine laugh out of me. Also, what lazy-arse employer can't measure 2 cups of rice on her own?
