This book is so much fun! I live the silliness of the kids and the way they count money. Their lemon-lime selling song will be stuck in my head for days! ( )

Good story about entrepreneurship for children under 10 years old. ( )

This book is a great read for an elementary math class learning about money. Teachers can use this to introduce the topic. It is repetitive which helps students remember. For example they say "four quarters, that's a dollar" many times throughout the story. They also change the price of the lemonade they are selling which changes the amount of money they are making. After they sell all of the lemonade, they use the money they made to buy 2 popsicles. This also teaches students about buying and selling, and that you work towards a goal. ( )
