I REMEMBER WHENTonight I sat on my daughter's overstuffed couch with my four year old sweet grand daughter, Paige, snuggled up next to me. She was chanting READ TO ME, HONEY! READ TO ME, HONEY. So I did.This book is a delight -- a grandmother reminisces with her grand children about how things were when she was a little girl and how different things are today. One item discussed was rotary telephones-- so different from cell phones! Another page shows a picture of a mouse, explaining how a mouse was a pet and not a computer part. Paige's favorite was a record player, just like the one I had, with a revolving record on it. She kept calling it a DVD and couldn't understand why you would put the arm piece on it to play music! Didn't it show movies she asked? Ah, the good old days.This book was both entertaining and a fun little learning lesson for Paige. It was also a good walk down memory lane for me! Full of hands-on illustrations that move, full of touchy/feely items, this book proved to hold the interest and attention of one pretty little four year old. Paige also asked me many, many questions about each item -- the record player, typewriter, the black and white TV, rotary phone, hanging clothes outside on a clothes line, etc. The clothes hanging to dry outside made Paige worry that I didn't have a dryer when I was a little girl. She just couldn't understand why I would ever hang clothes outside!!! Why didn't I use the dryer she kept asking me!This book was fun to enjoy together and brought up many questions and comments. It was a good learning tool and seemed to amaze a young little four year old. My daughter teaches first grade and asked if she could take this book to school to read to her class.
