America of the middle century was rich in post-war optimism and growing in prosperity. It was a decade of pigtails and pin curls, unlocked doors and baths once a week, whether needed or not. Through anecdotes of childhood mischief - from burying her precious pet rat to poking a dead bloated cow - the author takes a nostalgic look back at a slower-paced, less-complicated time. With enough humor and tongue-in-cheek to amuse, she opens a window to an era when a child's eyes would light with delight at the discovery of a Bazooka Joe cartoon hidden undercover of a penny bubble gum wrapper or the simple gift of a new box of Crayola crayons.
