Description

In this delightful introduction to simple money concepts, an enthusiastic young bunny discovers how good it feels to use his allowance to help others.

Chummy longs to be a superhero. He wants to save the world--or at least Bunnyland--from dragons, so spending his carrots on a superhero costume seems like a great plan! When his grandma reminds him that there aren't any dragons in Bunnyland, but that there are creatures that could use help, Chummy starts reconsidering the best way to spend his wad. This is the fourth book in the internationally acclaimed Moneybunny Books series that also includes Earn It!, Spend It!, and Save It!

Editorial Reviews

“Chummy’s grandmother gives him 10 carrots for his birthday (carrots, of course, being currency in Bunnyland) along with a piece of advice: ‘Spend some on yourself, dear, and some on helping others.’ . . . It is a tough decision. Young financial analysts will certainly have an opinion while reading and weighing the choices, making this a solid jumping-off point for discussions about charitable giving. A sweet tale about the path to generosity.”—Kirkus Reviews
