About The Book

Explore the trends, fashion, technology, and inventions of the 1980s with this totally tubular Level 2 Ready-to-Read full of fun facts, illustrations, and interactive backmatter!

In the 1980s, boom boxes and breakdancing were all the rage, Cabbage Patch Kids were flying off the shelves, and a new TV station called MTV was launched. Kids will love learning about all things 80s, like the first at-home video game consoles, jelly shoes, leg warmers, eighties slang, and VCRs! Lighthearted illustrations, photographs of the fashion and fads, and approachable language introduce young readers to all this and even more hallmarks of the awesome decade.
