Welcome to Kit's World, 1934: Growing Up during America's Great Depression

(4) 4-6 American Girls Collection series. Filled with photos and drawings, this is a useful resource on America during the 1930s. Each chapter traces an aspect of life, from economics to the weather to popular culture. The link to Kit Kittredge, the American Girls character, is a bit tenuous, and the fictional asides seem forced, but readers will enjoy looking through the busy, oversize pages.
