Acerca de este libro electrónico
Our homes give us shelter and keep us safe, but homes have changed over time. Long ago families used oil lamps for light and kept food cold in iceboxes; now we use electricity to light our homes and refrigerators to keep our food cold.

Timelines in the back of each book give readers perspective by listing key inventions and developments that have modernized our lives.
