Customer Reviews

great for teaching money

This book was great for introducing the nickel to young children. There was valuable info on the coin, but the text was not overwhelming for young learners. It definately is geared for kindergarten and first graders!

Here's my two cents!

I love this entire series of books. As a elementary school Media Specialist, I am constantly on the look-out out for excellent resources for students and teachers! This series offers large type, photographs to illustrate the content, information at a lower reading level -- but the information contained is exactly what students need to know! Close-up pictures of the back and front of the coins are especially nice! These books are ideal for students with an interest in money; reading specialists in schools; and elementary media centers. The only drawback is that I can only find the series in paperback, and not library or hardcover editions.
