  The Starting History series offers young readers an introduction to history and aims to meet the requirements of ATs 1, 3 and 4 of the National History Curriculum for Key Stage 1. Aided by historical and contemporary photographs, the series discusses how life in Britain has changed since 1930 and invites readers to make comparisons with their own experiences. It also encourages them to further their understanding of the past by talking to older relatives. This volume examines the changes in the home, from terraced cottages to high-rise blocks and modern housing estates. Among the topics explored are kitchen equipment, heating and lighting, furniture and radio, television and stereo.
