COMMUNICATION THEN AND NOW is a nonfiction book that compares how communication has changed over the years. The reader is presented with the simple knowledge of how and why things have changed. Readers are encouraged to critically think about these changes. For example, "How have televisions and the Internet changed the way we receive news today?" Most of the pages include a question to spark critical thinking. This book compares smart phones to old telephones, email to regular mail, the news, along with the how stories where told from one generation to the next. The book also includes a learn more section with websites and books for further learning. The pictures found throughout the book include a switchboard operator, general store, old classroom and library, and many more. I would recommend this nonfiction book to third graders and above. This would also be a good read aloud to younger students as well.
