Lily wants a new bike. And a new raincoat. And ice cream. But how many of these things does she need? As Lily and her dad drive around town, Lily soon discovers that wants and needs are different things. She picks out which things people have to have. She might even remind her dad that he doesn't need root beer! Learn how to be wise about money! These simple, engaging stories present basic financial literacy concepts, such as saving, spending, borrowing, and comparison shopping to build a foundation for a lifetime of money smarts. Free downloadable series teaching guide available. Review: Great series for talking about money - I used this book (and the others in the series by the same author) to create a Money Smart kids program in our Day Camp program (5-10yr olds). The books are good introductions to the topics and help kids understand the ideas. We have used some of the activities in the books as the projects we do with the kids. We started this last summer (2016) and repeated this again (2017) and the kids were still interested in seeing the books again. Fun story. When we start camp we talk about money in general (where you get it, what it looks like). When we asked each kid what you buy with money most listed "food", "clothes", "water", and such. Then one kid said "toys!". Two kids responded, "that's a Want not a Need!" Awesome! Review: good starting point for learning about money - I bought this as part of a present for a 4 year old so that she can start to understand money in positive ways. Very cute book with caregiver participation guides in the back and additional resources listed for additional learning. I think parent conversations are needed with this book as you read it since just reading it alone won't help the child to fully understand the difference between a want and a need but this is a great starting point for their learning and caregivers should be participating with the child anyways. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #561,979 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #273 in Children's Money #314 in Children's Money & Saving Reference (Books) #4,548 in Children's Beginner Readers | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 192 Reviews | ## Images ![Lily Learns about Wants and Needs (Cloverleaf Books ™ ― Money Basics) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91UZcDMGAGL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great series for talking about money *by M***S on July 25, 2017* I used this book (and the others in the series by the same author) to create a Money Smart kids program in our Day Camp program (5-10yr olds).
