“Three Cups” written by Mark St. Germain, illustrated by April Willy
Description:
Teaching children how to save, spend, and be charitable can be as simple as 1, 2, 3.
All parents want to teach their children good money habits from an early age. Many start by giving them an allowance. But it’s equally important to teach children a positive, generous attitude as they learn to use money responsibly.
Filled with warm, memorable illustrations by award-winning painter, April Willy, Three Cups is the story of one family’s unique and effective method of teaching personal financial management-and how one boy reaped first the small, then the immeasurably great rewards of the lessons he learned.
Families will be delighted with the heart-warming tale and want to integrate the three-cup system in their own children’s lives.
My Review:
I know that I say this a lot in my book reviews, and I am happy to say it again…I loved this book!
It is such a good life lesson story. One that I would highly recommend for any family with children to own, read, and pass down to each generation. The story is about three cups given to a little boy for his 5th birthday from his parents – one for savings, one for charity, and one for spending. I would have loved to have owned this book as a child – maybe it would have helped me with my money. It really warms your heart to read this book with your children, because not only are they learning that its okay to spend/save money for things that you may want in life, but that there is no greater gift than helping others.
I cannot wait til my girls are a little older, and can truly understand the meaning and tradition of such an amazing book! You can purchase this book from www.3cupsbook.com or on Amazon (for as low as $2.00 used).
