What to Do When Your Mom or Dad Says…”Earn Your Allowance!”
Joy Wilt Berry; W Pub Group 1982
The story reads well. It is especially kid friendly because it includes side dialogue by a bird and Melvin, the little boy. The information is accurate, but it could be updated because it was published in 1981. The story is grammatically correct. The storyline is about a boy named Melvin who learns about allowance. He learns about family income, chores, percentages, items to purchase, handling money, agreements, and payment charts.
