When I Was Little (Just Like You)

When I Was Little (Just Like You)

"When I Was Little (Just Like You)" is the second book by author Brian Ostrowski. Beautifully illustrated by award-winning illustrator Aleksandar Sotirovski, the book outlines the differences between being a kid in the 70s and 80s and being a kid today. The book is a great way to give children a glimpse of what life was like before the Internet, mobile devices, and play dates. A time when arcades, payphones, and roller rinks littered the landscape, and kids spent hours exploring, riding their bikes, and playing in the dirt. "Filled with enjoyable rhymes, great illustrations, and a meaningful message, this is a must-read for kids. I would definitely recommend this book for anyone who is raising or educating a young child. I will certainly be showing this to my students, as well as my daughter." - Reader's Favorite Book Reviews I thought that this was a wonderful book that will allow children of parents who were born in the 70s/80s to show what life was like for them 'back in the day'. The bright and beautiful illustrations show perfectly how some of the simplest things could make a child happy. - Danny Pearson (Senior Editor Badger Publishing UK) "When I Was Little (Just Like You)" represents the meeting of two great artists: one who plays with words, and other who rules the art. The subject of the book is near and dear to all born in the 70s and 80s -- though I believe even those younger will enjoy it (although they may not believe that such prehistoric times existed a mere three decades ago). Charming, skillful, masterful! Truly a gem! - Marko Stojanovic (Comic book writer) Brian lives in New Jersey with his wife and two children. When he's not working he enjoys watching 80s movies, surfing the web, and playing vintage video games--especially Ms. Pac-Man. He secretly wishes he had a talking car, and that soda drink hats, station wagons, and keyboard-driven guitar rock would make a comeback. He's currently scouring local yard sales to complete his boxed 2600 Activision collection. "When I Was Little (Just Like You)" is Brian's second children's book.
