OverviewHere is a clever blend of humor, math wizardry, and business know-how. As it captures the one-of-a-kind bond between brother and sister, this poignant novel also subtly explores how arguments can escalate beyond anyone's intent. For a full hour, he poured lemonade. The world is a thirsty place, he thought as he nearly emptied his fourth pitcher of the day. And I am the Lemonade King. Evan Treski is people-smart. He's good at talking with people, even grownups. His younger sister Jessie, on the other hand, is math-smart--but not especially good at understanding people. She knows that feelings are her weakest subject. With just five days left of summer vacation, Evan and Jessie launch an all-out war to see who can sell the most lemonade before school starts. As the battleground heats up, there really is no telling who will win--and even more important, if their fight will ever end. The six books in this fun-to-read series are: The Lemonade War The Lemonade Crime The Bell Bandit The Candy Smash The Magic Trap The Bridge Battle Full Product DetailsAuthor: Ms Jacqueline DaviesPublisher: Cengage Learning, Inc Imprint: Houghton Mifflin Volume: 1 Dimensions: Width: 13.00cm , Height: 1.50cm , Length: 19.30cm Weight: 0.127kg ISBN: 9780547237657ISBN 10: 0547237650 Pages: 192 Publication Date: 01 May 2009 Recommended Age: From 8 to 12 years Audience: Children/juvenile , Children / Juvenile Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
