In Deena's Lucky Penny, the focus is on money: identifying pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters; recognizing equivalencies (eg. five pennies = one nickel; two nickels = one dime; and so on, up to four quarters = one dollar). Deena's mom's birthday is coming and Deena has no money to buy a present for her. She finds a "lucky" penny and through the help of neighbors and family, she trades up until her penny gradually becomes a dollar. Now Deena can afford a gift for mom. Math Concept: Money, 32 pages, 6.5 x 9, Ages 4-6

This review is from: Deena's Lucky Penny (Math Matters Series) (Paperback)
There's nothing here that can't be accomplished by showing your child the various coins and describing their values. This transparent and heavy-handed story won't entertain today's savvy child, who can smell a "learning opportunity" from a mile away. Dullsville. My 5 year old son loves the topic of money, and he thought this was a snoozer. I'll be very surprised, if he asks to hear it again.
