Not YMMV


* FashionDissonance: Some clothing-related bits of the story are a little odd to modern readers. It's become extremely uncommon for Girl Scouts to wear their uniforms to school, even on meeting days; many Scouts don't even ''own'' formal uniforms anymore, apart from the merit badge sash. Additionally, when Amy is cleaning her room, there's a specific mention of her hanging up her petticoat - the average fifth-grader nowadays might not even know what that is.[[note]]The same garment is more likely to be identified as a "slip."[[/note]]

Society Marches On has been renamed; cleaning out misuse and moving examples


* SocietyMarchesOn: It amazes Amy that Bernadette's mother isn't home during the day because she's a college student. In TheSixties, that ''would'' have been noteworthy; nowadays, it's not at all unusual.

None


* TechnologyMarchesOn: The book hasn't aged particularly well for this reason. To cite perhaps the biggest example, the twins' father is rather staunchly opposed to his children watching television and doesn't even particularly like the fact that the family ''owns'' one. Viewed through a modern lens, this comes off exceedingly strange.

* ValuesDissonance: Another reason the book hasn't aged well, especially with the way both the parents and the school respond to Alan's bullying.
