Ups and Downs and Turns So Wide - a book about our changing times

Little Tommy thinks he's punished when his parents tell him they'll have to start cutting back as a result of the recession. When he learns that many of his friends are in the same situation, he feels empowered and starts to think that maybe change isn't so scary after all. 'Ups and Downs and Turns So Wide', is a charming tale that teaches children about the cycles of life and money, and the role family values plays to imbue them with confidence to face it all. Whether well off, broke, or somewhere in the middle, this is "the conversation" all of us need to be having with our families.
