Bo and the Clubhouse Crew

A parent might reach for this book when their teen expresses curiosity about the past, particularly how people talked in old movies or books. This unique book is not a story, but a glossary of American slang from the early twentieth century, with a special focus on the 1920s. It provides a fascinating window into the culture, attitudes, and daily life of the era. By exploring how language evolves, it opens conversations about history, social justice, and the power of words. Due to its inclusion of historically accurate but now offensive terms (including slurs and references to adult themes), this book is best suited for mature teens and requires parental guidance and discussion.
