What People Are Saying

  • What a wonderful and vivid way to teach youngsters the value of money! The visuals, the rhymes, and the connections make it all so real for various learning styles. I can’t wait to purchase copies for my special “little” people!

    Tiffany Murray | Secondary School Teacher, 19 Years

  • Penny Learns About Pennies is not just a story about finances, it is a story about love.  It is a story that quickly draws you into the world of Penny and Grandma Deer while teaching valuable facts about money that a young child can easily understand.

    Tonda Price | Grandmother

  • When my seven-year-old granddaughter was five or so, I started exchanging bills with her for coins in her piggy bank.  I wanted her to begin to understand the meaning of different forms of money.  After reading the beautifully written and illustrated Penny Learns About Pennies, I now have a far better way to teach my two-year-old granddaughter the same lesson.  And, I look forward to future books in the series.

    Lee Straus | EVP Onstead Holdings

  • As a retired educator and mother of a 6-year-old, I think this book is a wonderful teaching tool! I think that the simplistic terms and the building of a “buck” from pennies is a great start to help young children learn about money. I will definitely use this book to teach my child about money denominations and how saving a simple penny can turn into larger sums of money.
