Unwrapping Some Illustrations 

















The Book




Two adorable little sisters, Lilly and May, cry as their beloved dad leaves for work.  Mom lovingly explains to them why both she and dad go off to work each day. 

She pulls out the family budget book and points out  that their parents have to work so the family can have money to pay for their home, food, clothes, and house utilities. 

More family money is paid out in the form of taxes which subsidizes other people's jobs such as: teachers, policemen, construction workers and firefighters, just to name a few.  

Once the girls realize the importance of their parent's  jobs they begin to understand and calm down. The children now know why both of their parents leave them daily in the loving care of a trusted care giver as they attend work.  Dad and Mom go to their jobs to make money for the necessities of living, to finance some fun things the family can do together and for their future needs. 

The illustrations enrich the message and kids will love that the book is written in rhyme. The family is biracial and the endpapers show diverse people performing different jobs around the city.  The author has included an engaging fun matching game at the end of the book for kids to enjoy also. 

Visit Anthony C. Delauney's website, Owning the Dash, for free financial literacy resources for kids and parents.  I love the book and highly recommend it!
