Review:
Danny Dollar Millionaire Extraordinaire The Lemonade Escapade is a refreshing take on entrepreneurship for students. Its easy-to-read story line and upbeat graphics make this a must-have for any bookshelf. The kid-friendly language and economic facts sprinkled throughout the story make it educational, yet still such an authentic read for children. The cover captures the attention of its readers; and both children and adults alike, can relate to the main character. The life lessons of perseverance, planning, and vision are carefully woven and shared by its characters. Looking forward to reading more of Danny Dollar s adventures in the future. --Karyn Y M.S.

Danny Dollar Millionaire Extraordinaire is a delightful read full of endearing (and sometimes maddening) characters. The best part is this book is infused with the basics of personal finance. This is an essential element to the book, and very well done. In addition, the lessons of hard work, perseverance and charity are neatly tied into the story. Children will enjoy Danny's Lemonade Escapade, and will take away valuable life long lessons as well. --Kelly W. Chapters Bookstore Inc.
I loved it! I thought Danny was a sassy character and his language made the book enjoyable to the younger audience it is geared towards. This is a great book to have in the classroom to use not only as a fun read-aloud, but to crossover into Math with the terms and learning about banking concepts such as interest, investing, and percentage. Danny is fun and will motivate children not only to think about saving their money, but how to enjoy charitable contributions to society as well. WONDERFUL JOB! --Yvonne D. School Teacher
