“Kids love it! This book is such a fun and creative way to teach the kiddos about money. I volunteer at an after-school program and it’s a learning tool the kids keep coming back to. Both the words and illustrations are a hit. After reading this book, I like to do an exercise with whatever change I have in my pocket, and boy does this book help them catch on fast. They sing song some of the lines as their little brains work to come up with an answer. It’s great how excited they are. GET THIS BOOK!”A Satisfied Reader
