WHY IS THIS BOOK NO LONGER PRINTED?

Hysterically funny! Delightful story about how a family started a couple of home businesses with the help of family and friends. Excellent book for a parent and child or a teacher to share with a small group (some of the pictures do not lend themselves to a large group). I am K-8 certified in Maine; I highly recommend this book!

Kid Enterprise

The true story of how average, bored kids started a business and made $16,000 for their college fund. It is a great book for explaining the process of starting and running a business in easy to understand language. This is not the run of the mill lemonade stand. They are creative and useful ideas aplenty. It may even lead to your own ideas for a college fund company!

Once upon a company

I am one of the characters in this book. Joel, Kale, and Lane are my cousins and Wendy is my aunt.The story is depicted well and is very inspiring to others.Like in all other books by Wendy the illustrations are amazing. The company is doing extremely well and there are many more people that are helping out.Read this book and be inspired.

This is a masterfully illustrated story offering encouragement to all children with entrepreneurial

Wendy Anderson Halperin has elevated the picture book to a fine art form. This story is uplifting, practical, and encouraging, but the illustrations steal the show. Every one is a masterpiece. There is no better illustrator out there today than Wendy Anderson Halperin. Every detail is authentic and educational. I could look at this book for hours.
