What can one little penny really do? During a trip to the grocery store with his mother, Stevie discovers that spending money means making choices. As he considers the things he wants, the things he needs, and an opportunity to help someone else, he begins to understand that money is about more than what we can buy--it can also show what we value. A Penny in My Pocket is a thoughtful and engaging introduction to financial literacy, helping young readers explore wants versus needs, responsible decision-making, generosity, and the surprising difference one small act of kindness can make. Perfect for families, classrooms, and meaningful conversations about money and compassion.
