At our library’s used book store Moira found these:
One is A Consumer’s Guide for Kids and the other is A Kid’s TV Guide – both part of the Weekly Reader’s Ready-Set-Grow Series. They were published in 1979 and it’s kinda frightening to consider how bad the statistics were about television violence 31 years ago vs. how much worse they must be now.
Christopher read the books quickly and Mo’s enjoying the illustrations but I think we will sit down and actually read them with all the kids – each has a lot of questions to help engage the kids in critical thinking. It was a fun find, I’m glad Moira snagged them – and even better, we paid $.50 for each. š I love our library’s book store.
