Fiver has a jar of dimes, a scooter dream, and a very hard decision to make.
Fiver wants the red scooter in the shop window more than anything. It has chrome handlebars. Streamers. A bell that says freedom. But saving money isn’t easy—especially with cookies, cakes, and a toy lizard named “Fart Lizard” tempting him at every turn.
Follow Fiver as he learns about earning, saving, and the power of waiting for something wonderful. This warm, funny, and beautifully illustrated picture book turns basic financial lessons into a story kids love.
Perfect for ages 4–8. Great for classroom reading, gift-giving, and sparking real conversations about money, choices, and goals.
