Great book!
My 8 year old made the comment to me a couple of months ago... if you want to get that all you need to do is write a check... with reading this book she has a little bit of understanding money has to be saved and depositied in a bank before you can just wite a check. I am also trying to teach her everytime she gets money she should put aside some in saving and to spend some.
