If I could give The Power of the Penny 100 stars I would. Not only do I absolutely love Abe Lincoln, I now adore pennies. This book not only focuses on history in a fun and creative way (which sparked tons of dialogue with my two boys) but also teaches some of the greatest virtues one can have; honesty, determination, character, kindness, understanding, imagination, happiness and so much more! What a treat this book is. As a teacher, I am going to develop a lesson plan around this book! It is just too great not to share with many others!"
Here is my favorite passage from the book (p. 30)
No matter the outcome, heads or tails, win or lose,
remember your attitude and actions are what you choose
Amazing!!! Says Mrs. Mommy Book Nerd
Investigate a penny with your child or student. The Power of the Penny makes it easy and fun teaching children the basic building blocks of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness and money wisdom.
