Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Saving Money
Tanya Thayer · 2002
55/100
👎 Skip It
A gentle, very short introduction to saving for the youngest readers - simple examples like saving up for gum or a book. It does exactly what it sets out to do for its age group, but at 23 pages there's just not much meat on the bone. Fine as a first exposure to the idea, not a book you'll return to.
