[Lake Press] A funny and relatable introduction to money, value, and making choices—perfect for curious kids ages 3-7. Ice cream, toys, donuts—there are so many tempting things to buy! But when kids hear “No, we can’t get that” or “Money doesn’t grow on trees,” it can be confusing, frustrating, or just plain unfair. In this clever and comical picture book, children’s author and illustrator Heath McKenzie helps young readers understand a timeless truth: money has limits, and making smart choices matters. With vibrant illustrations and laugh-out-loud moments, Money Doesn’t Grow on Trees introduces children to basic financial concepts like earning, saving, and spending in a way that’s engaging, age-appropriate, and easy to grasp. It also opens the door to important conversations about needs versus wants, budgeting, and where money really comes from (spoiler: not trees or phone screens!).
