        Mine might be that we didn’t own an encyclopedia; I can’t remember if we did or not. But… I think we did.

          My parents bought a set of Encyclopedias, they didn’t get much use tbh. Took up whole shelf on this antique cabinet they had.

        I learned to ride my bike one handed so I could carry my boom box. Tracking down 8 D Batteries was the hardest part.

      2 points cause we lived a couple blocks from the library so we never felt the need to own a dictionary or encyclopedia. Though really like 1.5 since my sister did have a CD from world book program that was like an encyclopedia for kids
