Mia puts five coins beside her lemonade stand. Two coins have a job already: they replace the lemons and cups she used. The child moves those two coins away, then colors the three that stay.
Each spread keeps one decision on the page. Which coins pay for what was used? Which coins remain? What changes when one lemon costs more?
The book is planned. Its job is to make collected, spent and kept visible before asking a young reader to remember the grown-up word profit.
