(4) 4-6 Everyday Economics series. Enlisting straightforward texts, these volumes cover many aspects of money and finance, including budgets, banks, interest, and how credit cards, checks, and loans work. Charts, "Know It" information boxes, and bland color photos break up the text. There's a high degree of repetition among the books, both of text and images, but the series offers clear, easy-to-grasp instruction in the essentials. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Everyday Economics titles: Dollars and Sense, Everyday Banking, From Seashells to Smart Cards, and Money Business.]
