Pretty Penny Sets up Shop by Devon Kinch


Kinch, Devon.  Pretty Penny Sets up Shop.  Random House, 2011. PICTURE BOOK.  Content, G.  $16.99  Penny wants to throw her grandma a party, so she sells items that her grandma has stored in the attic to pay for the cupcakes.  Penny sets up the attic to look like a shop and then sells items to the neighbors.  The book could have math story problems in it, but the author leaves out some details.  Also, there are pictures showing customers buying things from Penny, but it doesn’t tell about it in the story.
