Nathan of Yesteryear and Michael of Today

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Joanne Friar. Detailed pictures and informational text highlight changes in the United States from the late-nineteenth to the early twenty-first century. Michael, the great-great-grandson of Nathan, lives in the same house with a similar dog, but the family relationship isn't explored; it's just a frame for the past/present contrast of eight topics: energy, construction, light, communication, transportation, school, entertainment, and dinnertime.
