Just Like Me? Kids and the American Home Front During World War II

 
You have read a little bit about Molly in the American Girls series and seen a little bit of what life was like for her and her friends as kids on the American home front during World War II.  Keep in mind, however, that Molly is a fictional character.  She is not real.  What was life really like for kids on the American home front during World War II?  Was life really the way that it is depicted in the Molly books? 

That is exactly what you are going to find out!  Let's take a trip back to the 1940s!
