What can happen when you start your own business? [Posted on 2008-07-02]
The narrator inherits an old lawn mower and starts a lawn mowing business. Before he knows it, he's got more business than he can handle and a hippie stockbroker making investments for him. Each chapter title has something to do with an economic principle and we are taken along on the ride as the young narrator learns more than he ever wanted to learn about capitalism.
Very quick read. Cute.
Great book!! [Posted on 2008-08-22]
Once again, Amazon was able to recommend a book that my son loved. I used to say that I had a son that didn't enjoy reading, but I feel like I can't say that anymore. He loved this story and kept reading parts out loud to the rest of the family. We all ended up reading and enjoying it. The main character is very easy to relate to and the author did an amazing job getting the reader to understand the character's problems and emotions. This book is a must read for all kids!!
11YR. OLD SON LOVED THIS ONE [Posted on 2008-10-24]
MY 11 YR. OLD SON REALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK. PERFECT FOR HIS AGE GROUP SINCE THEY CAN NOW MOW THE LAWN AND START MAKING SOME MONEY AT IT. REALLY IMPRESSED AT HOW THE CHARACTER IN THIS BOOK IS VERY MOTIVATED TO WORK!!! BACK TO THE BASICS, NO VIDEO GAMES, JUST A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE FOR YOUNG TEEN BOYS.
Good read! [Posted on 2008-11-06]
This book was great because he won his own prizefighter and it was really cool. I learned that if you make a lot of money and hire employees, you can make more money and not have to do much work. You can also hire people so that they can have a job and make money. I learned never to keep a secret.
Funny and educational, my son loved it! [Posted on 2008-11-18]
Highly recommended. I enjoyed it and so did my 10 and 13 yr old sons. Some of it may have been over their head but I got the jokes and laughed out loud while I was reading. If only this story was true!
