Alexander, Who Used to Be Rich Last Sunday Audiobook

" Let it be known that Alexander is the best easy picture book character out there today. I adore the illustrations, the expressions on the characters faces and the dialect. A great story time/school group read, you can really go to town on voices and flailing limbs :) "

" Definatily grab your pencil and paper and subtract along Alexander goes from one whole dollar to a lot less. Keep track of everything Alexander buys throughout the week. See how hard it can be to save money. Teach your students the value of a dollar and how times (and prices) have changed! "

" Alexander gets $1.00 from his grandparents when they visited from New York. It is only a matter of time before he spends his $1.00 on different things. "
