About the Book

Dirt Roads and High Topped Shoes ~ Childhood in the 1920s

By Amy Sinclair

Amy Sinclair grew up in a small town nestled between the hills and the river. Being born in 1916, her life was much different from children today. Her first home had no electricity, no hot water, and no inside bathroom.

In her memoir of her childhood in the 1920s, she tells about the aspects of life that you don’t read about in history books.

How did children play? What was school like? How did they dress? What was it like riding in some of the very first cars that were ever made?

In this book, Amy will take you on a journey into the past. You may discover that even though it is almost a century later, some things never change.
