Review of "Grandma Trooley’s Old Fashioned Picture Book for Boys and Girls," by Americana Review

 Review of

Grandma Trooley’s Old Fashioned Picture Book for Boys and Girls, by Americana Review

Four out of five stars

The games children played

 This pamphlet is a collection of old-style prints depicting children at play. From the actions, clothing and backdrops, the scenes could be anytime in the nineteenth century. There are few, if any, manufactured toys, the activities are generally those where imagination transformed what the children had into toys. It is an interesting and accurate look back at how children amused themselves in the nineteenth century.
