The Second Decade: Voyages

(4) 4-6 Century Kids series. A multigenerational theatrical family is introduced in the first two volumes of a series that follows the Aldriches through each decade of the twentieth century. The group rings in New Year 1900, races Oldsmobiles, and loses relatives on the Titanic. The diffuse plots touch on issues such as women's suffrage and child labor, and while the books' premise is intriguing, the execution is somewhat superficial.
