| Summary | "Clothing and Health: An Elementary Textbook of Home Making" by Helen Kinne and Anna M. Cooley is an educational guide aimed at teaching home economics, particularly focusing on clothing and health, written in the early 20th century. The textbook is designed for elementary school students and emphasizes the importance of sewing, textile knowledge, and the relationship between clothing and health. The opening of the book introduces the Pleasant Valley School, where students are engaged in practical lessons about sewing and textile materials. The narrative highlights the girls of the sewing league as they learn how to choose appropriate materials for their projects, such as towels and aprons, while also discussing the characteristics of various fabrics like cotton and linen. Through hands-on learning, the girls explore not only the art of sewing but also the significance of making informed choices about clothing in relation to hygiene and health, laying the foundation for a well-rounded home-making education.
