The Lemonade War by Jacqueline Davies
Hot summer days. Drinking cold, refreshing lemonade. Have you ever had a lemonade stand? When I was younger we would have a Kool-Aid stand. We never took it to the level that Jessie did in The Lemonade War though. Things escalated between her and her slightly older brother Evan when they found out they'd be in the same fourth grade class next year. They both reacted differently to the news and their brother/sister friendship is turning competitive over the sale of lemonade. Reading this book will give you good ideas about selling lemonade but also insights on friendships, brothers and sisters and economics. Our library has a copy of the Maud Hart Lovelace Nominee for 2010-11.
