Publisher's Synopsis
Take a nostalgia trip back to five-cent coca colas, Howdy Doody Time, and TV rabbit ears.
Answering the question "What was it like when you were little, Grandma?" the author recalls her 1950's childhood in a suburb of Washington DC. From her neighborhood in Chevy Chase, MD, to post-war Japan and back, she relates incidents at school, church, and home that make readers, as one said, "nostalgic for something I never had."
The narrative ends at high school graduation, but there are several sections that give clues to her life as an adult and her views on childhood today.
