If You Lived in Colonial Times, a book by Ann McGovern.

 

Ever wonder what life was really like for kids who lived in colonial times?  What kind of food did they eat?  What did they do for fun?  Where did they get their clothes from?  What did the houses look like?  What did people sleep on?  How long did it take to receive a letter sent through the mail?  What did girls like to do?  What games did boys like?  What were the special Sunday laws?

 

As you can imagine, most of these answers are quite different than they would be today.  Answers to these questions, and many more, are found within the pages of this book.
