This book was created for readers between 9 and 12 years of age. I can't think of any way to improve the book; color illustrations reinforced the text. No matter which type of house a family resided in, this book shows how they lived.
The colonies needed a trained labor force; children became apprentices to masters in a trade, such as blacksmiths, apothecaries and milliners. Colonial children seemed to have been treated as small adults; there wasn't much time to play.
Life was hard in the colonies and everyone in the family worked to make sure there was enough food all year long.
This book shows the various pieces of clothing men and women wore (children wore smaller versions of the same clothes). This is a fascinating book about early life in America.
