This may sound too good to be true, but I loved how this book encourages kids to think about why they want a million dollars. The presentation of the content is great! It makes complicated things like investments sound friendly and realistic. Kids are starting businesses and making their own money all the time these days. What a valuable resource to teach them how to grow that money for later. Good character is stressed throughout this easy-to-read format. sc, 133pp. ~ Sara
