review:
'1970s Childhood' by Liza Hollighurst is a non-fiction look at growing up in the 1970s in Britain.

With chapters like Family Life, School, Books and Magazines and others, this book is a look back, sometimes with nostalgia, sometimes not, at growing up in the UK in the 1970s. Tight money meant families had to make do with hand me down toys and clothing. Treats were less available, and maybe appreciated more because of it. The book has quite a few pictures of children and entertainers of the era.

I also grew up in the 1970s. While the brands and pop icons might have been different, it was interesting to see how other children experienced some of the events of the 1970s. This is a pretty quick read, and I enjoyed it.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Shire Publications, Osprey Publishing, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
