Money Madness

32 pp. | Holiday | February, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8234-1474-1 $16.95
(2) K-3 Illustrated by Edward Miller. Why does everybody want money? And what did people do before it existed? This picture-book look at money is direct, concise, and surprisingly humorous. After discussing bartering and early forms of money, Adler compares the value of different currencies and touches on deflation/inflation. Throughout Miller's crisp computer-generated illustrations, Uncle Sam and others expand on the informative text.
