[Booklist]

Thoroughly enjoyed this jaunt through history. One short story for each decade from 1900-2000. Starting with the St Louis Worlds's Fair in 1904 and ending with a Y2K chatroom in the 1990's these short stories capture a moment in time and are interesting and not at all boring. Writers are all good story tellers (great ideas for more books to read) and stories are as much about human nature as history.

This book was a great book too read.I would recommend it to anyone that wants to learn what teans went through from 1900-2000.There was many great characters in this book that made it what it was including characters like these two teenagers sammy and henry that went through WW2 together in the 1940s.They had to go through everything including the Japanese attacks on the US.Some of the things I liked about this book was the stories including the one that Trudy krisher wrote about the 1950s,She talked about how women's rights were a issue and how there were many people trying to fix it and she is still trying to expand women rights to this day.I also liked how it would be in first person POV,It would talk about the stories as the teenagers saw it on that day in that year which help expand to living during that time.

T"his is a good book full of short stories. Some are more interesting than others, but they all are good to some degree.

Kinda weird. The individual stories were good, but they didn't really make sense together. I didn't get why that book was written. It was weird.

Some of the stories seemed a little contrived to fit the collection, but most of them were well done.
