What kinds of things did you memorize out of the encyclopedia?
In the 60, 70s, 80s and into the 90s we got our information from encyclopedias. We had a set growing up. When I got bored I’d read an encyclopedia. I memorized rocks (cool pictures,) jewels (pretty pictures,) dogs, snakes and cats. I also researched Native Americans.
My sisters did pretty much the same. It’s how my little sister was able to identify that the snake that bit her was a water moccasin. She said, “I looked at it, looked closer and my mind thought back to the picture in the encyclopedia.”
