For anyone who quoted Urkel, saved up her (or his!) allowance for a Britney Spears Barbie doll, traded pogs with friends in class, or played the original Oregon Trail during IT, Did I Do That? brings back favorite '90s toys, fads and memories from childhood in a fully illustrated, shamelessly nostalgic collection.

Did I Do That?:The Best (and Worst) of the '90s - Toys, Games, Sh Summary

Did I Do That?:The Best (and Worst) of the '90s - Toys, Games, Sh: "The Best (and Worst) of the '90s - Toys, Games, Shows, and Other Stuff" by Amber Humphrey

An outrageously fun, tongue in cheek follow up to Just Can't Get Enough; Abrams's bestselling survey of '80s pop culture, Did I Do That?: The Best (and Worst) of the '90s relives the decade that brought the Power Rangers, Saved by the Bell and Beanie Babies to worldwide stardom. Celebrating the most sought after, wacky, ubiquitous and downright bizarre bits of 1990s pop culture, this chock full book looks back at everything kids begged their parents for and comments on what made all that stuff so irresistible. Each of the top forty pop culture phenomena of the era; from toys and games to television and film to books and music, gets its own short chapter discussing its rise and fall, spinoffs, favorite moments and more, along with running commentary on what was hot at the moment and what was suddenly "so five minutes ago."
