Firework night

I remember reading this book during the early 1970s as a 7-8year old.Roundabout the same period when making a dummy of guy fawkes to collect 'pennies for the guy',was a preoccupation of most boys and girls leading up to firework night....The book drew me in with its bitesized chunks of easily digested references to times past.The book is also a fond association,for me,of a time when children had different freedoms.
