Pretty Penny Makes Ends Meet by Devon Kinch

When a big boom wakes them in the night, Pretty Penny, Grandma Bunny and Iggy check it out.  It's the hot water tank and it's broken...

Random House sent me a copy of this  book for review (thank you).  It has been published, so check with your local bookstore for a copy.

They've already used up their repair budget this month with other maintenance items, so how can they pay the $100 for a new hot water tank?  Penny decides to sleep on it.

When she wakes, she has an idea!  She's going to make jewelry to sell.  Not only does she do well at the sale, she knows how to figure out her net profit.

Penny is always dealing with money and showing children how to be conservative and reuse and recycle old goods.  Math in an attractive package doesn't seem like math.

Happy reading.
