Review:
“Money really does grow on trees in Nancy Kelly Allen's children's book
Once Upon a Dime. The story follows farmer Truman Worth, his special tree
and a young boy in his journey to learning the value of money. The book is full
of bright illustrations by Adam Doyle that are sure to keep kids anticipating
the turn of the next page. With friends like Lewis and Cluck and Grover
Clevelamb, parents are sure to have a laugh while kids learn a priceless lesson.
Once Upon a Dime costs $6.95 and is available at bookstores
nationwide.”
