Summary: It's the Memento of the 1980s! Take a trip back in time with us to 1980 on the nosey. An era when children apparently eschewed backpacks for satchels and school lunches were just as elaborate as those in Bread and Jam for Frances. Don't believe me? Then you haven't taken an up close and personal deep dive into one of Kellogg's most famous stories. Kate had never seen a Steven Kellogg book on the show before, so Betsy figured they'd give this one a go. It's perfect for them since Kellogg was the master of the peculiar detail. He's an illustrator that rewards close readings and, for this, we salute him. Show Notes: - If anyone out there can tell us what the 1980s cooperative board game of Betsy's youth involving chickens was, we invite the information. - We only knew about this book back in the day because of Reading Rainbow. Take a trip back in time with us, kids! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76xzBWjS2dg - For the full Show Notes please visit: http://blogs.slj.com/afuse8production/2019/01/28/fuse-8-n-kate-the-day-jimmys-boa-ate-the-wash-by-trinka-hakes-noble-ill-steven-kellogg
