Teaching local history to children is very important. Without knowing where you come from, you can't know where you are going. "Way Back When in Wichita Falls" is a picture book for children, with photos of it's past turned into art work to appeal to children. It is written in very simple language that a child can read. My hope is that parents and grandparents will read it with the child to reminisce about the old days in Wichita Falls. At the end of the book are several coloring pages of places around Wichita Falls and even a few Word Search puzzles to complete.
