Book Reviews of Hi There, Boys and Girls! America's Local Children's TV Programs
Book Review: Wonderful nostalgia
Summary: 5 Stars
This impressive, enjoyable volume represents an ambitious undertaking, as it chronicles the national history of the local kiddie shows that once thrived in every major American television market. Of course, an overview such as this has to cover a lot of ground within certain editorial limits, and various programs, individuals, and cities are dealt with summarily. Many of these subjects also deserve separate, in-depth book-length studies of their own, and perhaps other regional historians will tackle these specific topics in future volumes. However, you can't go wrong with HI THERE, BOYS AND GIRLS! -- the author does an expert, entertaining job of closely examining a form of local TV programming that has regrettably disappeared from the landscape.
