From Booklist:

Beginning with the most basic of investment questions, this volume of the Teen Guide to Investing series presents goals that are on the horizon for most teens—buying a car or growing a college fund, for instance—and encourages readers to start small, earning money through lawn mowing or other odd jobs and then putting that cash into the bank. With time, those seed funds can grow enough to consider certificates of deposit, 529 plans, saving bonds, and even stocks. Teens are challenged to think of the future, toward homeownership and even retirement. Eye-catching and symbolic stock photos (lots of piggy banks, eggs in baskets) enliven the text and add visual interest to this practical, smart, and helpful book. Money-savvy teens should glean plenty of potentially lucrative tips. Grades 8-12. --Courtney Jones
