Life lesson

My daughter loves these books. I do as well. I wish that I had these books when I was younger. I would have been better prepared for the future. Money and saving it something that you have to learn how to handle.

Excellent Book for Kids!

My daughters loved this book! And it really hit home about how quickly money can be spent!

Careless at the Carnival: Junior Discovers Spending

very good book...I will use it for our First Grade programs. I work for BancorpSouth, we have a partnership with our first grade and we do monthly programs about saving and spending wisely.

Great gift idea

We purchased this series of books for all of our grandchildren and accompanied them with a piggy bank

Pretty darn good book that teaches good life values.

Oh my, Me and my daughter really enjoyed this book. She is only eight so she is still at the learning to read and being comfortable with the structure of sentences. About half way through the book my daughter got a little tired but she pushed on and I finished up the last four pages or so. The lesson taught in this book was golden, "Make a plan for how you spend your money and then stick to it". This happens to be a lesson that us adults need to adhere to a little more often, dont you think?. We used this book for a book report and it served the purpose quite well, and left us with something to treasure for a lifetime to come, thanks alot.
