She reminds you what it was like to grow up during an era that consisted of playing countless hours of Nintendo, reading Lurlene McDaniel books, and wearing Esprit T-shirts and Yoyo jeans. With no real responsibilities to worry about, a typical day involved playing board games, eating junk food, and obsessing over the latest Lisa Frank stickers.
Artifacts of a '90s Kid is a candid, coming-of-age, humorous account of Alana's experiences as a millennial growing up in Central Illinois. It focuses on her elementary and junior high school years (1992-1999) and includes present-day commentary. Alana offers up a hilarious compilation of diary entries, homework fails, notes, artwork, poetry, and awkward photos from her childhood-all that and a bag of chips!
Although the handwriting and spelling can be atrocious at times, millennials will relate to Alana's diary entries describing a very innocent, honest, and naive time when life was simple and carefree. Featuring many milestones of growing up-from making friends, to crushes, to being overly dramatic-along with some totally dope nineties references that every millennial is sure to enjoy.
