Coins. Dollars. Euros. Yen. People use money to buy the things they want and need. But just what is money and why do we use it? Simple, yet engaging text and colorful images introduce young readers to money, how we use it, and different types of currency around the world.
"This attractive series includes eye-catching and high quality full-page photos of children and clear, informative text. . . .Readers will see themselves in the multicultural kids featured on these pages: raking leaves, counting pennies, window-shopping. The photographs are not the usual bland stock image but rather are refreshing in their ability to capture true emotion. VERDICT A solid foundation for financial literacy curricula." - School Library Journal
