For Nonfiction Monday  --  "From Marbles To Video Games: how toys have changed" by Jennifer Boothroyd.
 
Boothroyd compares past and present through the use of popular toys and explains how toys changed to make the transition to modern day. Archival black and white photos juxtaposed with modern color images enhance the comparison. The language of the text is simple enough for young readers. Back matter consisting of Names to Know, Glossary, and Further Reading provide opportunities for additional exploration of the topic.
