Flashback to the ... Awesome 80s by Patty Michaels, illustrated by Sarah Rebar - OPTIONAL

Flashback to the ... Awesome 80s
by Patty Michaels, illustrated by Sarah Rebar.
32 pages. EARLY READER Simon Spotlight ( Simon and Schuster). 2023. $18. 

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - OPTIONAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: LOW 

The 1980's were full of fads and trends, with new fashions and an explosion of technology. 

This level two "Ready to Read" is a look back for the reader to their grandparent's time. I thought AJ would think it was cool - she lost interest before finishing it. Full of lists with little explanation (what even is rewind?) of TV shows, toys, computers, and gaming. I think it would be a hard sell to the intended audience.
