Kiplinger’s Money-Smart Kids (and Parents, Too!)
By Janet Bodnar
Soft cover, 280 pages

With a generous dose of humor and a firm grasp on the purse strings, Bodnar, mother of three and senior editor of Kiplinger’s Personal finance Magazine offers parents advice on teaching kids the value of a dollar. She wastes no time in laying out the frightening news: "Parents are totally in charge of their kids' purchases only up to about age three." Then, using a combination of anecdotes and advice from money-smart grown-ups and from kids themselves, she helps parents determine their own attitudes about money and introduces them to strategies that will enable their kids to save, invest, budget, and even spend wisely. A sensible book that will do more than help parents teach about money: it will help them teach about organization and responsibility.
