This large-print picture book is packed with black and white photographs of Australian life between 1940 and 1970, including Australian places, leaders, famous people, homes, transport and children, as well as Australia at war. Each picture has a brief descriptive caption in large print. It will bring back happy memories for anyone who lived in Australia during that period. The book is intended to prompt reminiscence and conversation in people with early stage dementia who may find it difficult to read 'normal' books. Like all books in the popular Memory Lane series, it does not mention dementia, memory loss or anything that might cause embarrassment to readers.
