Review:
"Have you ever wondered how the TV dinner was created? Left with tons of turkey after a slow Thanksgiving season, the Swanson Company combined the modern appeal of refrigeration and television...History lessons have never been so much fun. Informative, entertaining, and clearly presented, this book is recommended for middle school, high school, and public libraries."
