Summary

In this delightful introduction to the simple concept of earning money, an exuberant little bunny learns that fame and fortune must be earned。

Bun wants to be rich and famous。 She loves to sing and knows she's meant for a career on stage。 It should all be pretty easy--her mom can just drive her to the concert hall to perform! But her mom reminds her that most good things, like the garden they are growing, take time and work。 At first, Bun isn't terribly excited by the idea of singing lessons and practice, but as she does the math and daydreams about her future singing career, the more she starts to like the idea of earning her way to stardom--a feeling just as good as being rich and famous!

I like the theory behind this better than the execution。 I needed this world to make more sense。

This is adorable and a perfect story for the topic! The conversations between Bun and Bun's Mom were EXACTLY what I imagine a child saying。 So useful in conversations about allowance。 This is adorable and a perfect story for the topic!

A basic economics book that teaches kids: you have to spend money to make money, getting rich and famous requires hard work and isn't guaranteed (risk), and the value of hard work is knowing that YOU EARNED the intrinsic and extrinsic rewards。 Wonderful messages and cute bunny- what's not to love?

Children usually want something instan。 They still don't know the process is something important than the result。 So this book is good to teach them that you have to work and keep trying to get something you want。 Children usually want something instan。 They still don't know the process is something important than the result。 So this book is good to teach them that you have to work and keep trying to get something you want。 。。。more

Bun decides she wants to be rich and famous。 Mother Rabbit and Bun have a conversation that teaches Bun some basic lessons about money。 A useful picture book to begin a discussion about economics。

“You know, Bun, bunnies don’t just get famous overnight。”Bun has big dreams to be a rich and famous singer, but how will Bun accomplish this? Bun’s mother helps her to understand that through hard work, practice, and saving money, when she finally arrives she will know she has earned it。

I purchased another book in this series - Spend it! - to mail to a nephew。 My 15 year-old son and his friends spotted it on our kitchen counter and were drawn in by the illustrations, so I mocked a “story time” while they cleared out my kitchen cabinets。 They loved this book! The conversation that ensued included sharing that four tops can be purchased at Value Village for the price of one at Garage (in the mall) and that one could buy 2,500 cans of Peace Tea during school lunch break at the loc I purchased another book in this series - Spend it! - to mail to a nephew。 My 15 year-old son and his friends spotted it on our kitchen counter and were drawn in by the illustrations, so I mocked a “story time” while they cleared out my kitchen cabinets。 They loved this book! The conversation that ensued included sharing that four tops can be purchased at Value Village for the price of one at Garage (in the mall) and that one could buy 2,500 cans of Peace Tea during school lunch break at the local Safeway for what my son paid for his bike。 I know for certain they all stopped to think and it prompted a great convo。 I have a book geared to teens and finances that by boys haven’t cracked open once。 Funny that the bunny managed to slip past the dignity-door-bouncer and packed a punch with some spendthrift teens。 Since I have ordered Earn it! and Save it! They are all winners with the teens。 I love that the books present concepts that the teens can run with it on their own accord。 。。。more

This book does a great job showing kids how to really think about earning it then just I want this。 It helps encourage that if you want something you have to Earn It!

Bun bunny loves to sing and wants to be rich and famous。 Her mother teaches her that she has to earn and save money in order to pursue that dream。 This is a simply told lesson that won't seem like a lesson to young readers, but will be learned。 Cute illustrations。 Bun bunny loves to sing and wants to be rich and famous。 Her mother teaches her that she has to earn and save money in order to pursue that dream。 This is a simply told lesson that won't seem like a lesson to young readers, but will be learned。 Cute illustrations。 。。。more

I really like the Money Bunny books, though this one is probably my least favorite。 Bun is a little obsessed with becoming rich and famous in this one, though that will likely resonate with some kids。

Meredith

Uh, I expected more practical tips。

Deb in UT

I really like how this teaches how to earn and learn step by step。 It would help children to avoid that ever pervasive sense of entitlement。 It's good to be realistic about dreams。 Most people have to work hard to achieve success。 This book shows that concept。 I really like how this teaches how to earn and learn step by step。 It would help children to avoid that ever pervasive sense of entitlement。 It's good to be realistic about dreams。 Most people have to work hard to achieve success。 This book shows that concept。 。。。more

A little rabbit must work hard to become the dancer she wants to be。 Preschool and up

Great concept, shaky execution。 The "become rich and famous" aspiration is。。。definitely not the only occupation they could have or should have gone with (and I say this as someone that sings as part of my job)。 Great concept, shaky execution。 The "become rich and famous" aspiration is。。。definitely not the only occupation they could have or should have gone with (and I say this as someone that sings as part of my job)。 。。。more

If only money were carrots。 Ha! This is very cute book about teaching kids to save their money if they want to do something。 If you don't earn it, it doesn't mean as much。 If only money were carrots。 Ha!

Bun is a bunny who loves to sing and wants to be rich and famous。 Her mother encourages her to keep up with her chores and do a few extra to help her earn carrots (bunny currency)。This title seems didactic。 Not recommended for storytime。

I liked this book's concept of making money, doing math, and hard work but what I didn't like was the parents encouraging the rich and famous idea。 I liked this book's concept of making money, doing math, and hard work but what I didn't like was the parents encouraging the rich and famous idea。 。。。more

Bun is a young rabbit who wants to grow up to be a rich and famous singer。 She and her mom go back and forth discussing how she can eventually achieve her dreams - starting with the chores she can do to earn money (carrots), opportunities to practice singing, and progressing on to selling songs/albums that might not make her rich or famous, but will give her a sense of satisfaction knowing that she earned her success。 Bun is cute and full of enthusiasm (and questions!) and kids will totally rela Bun is a young rabbit who wants to grow up to be a rich and famous singer。 She and her mom go back and forth discussing how she can eventually achieve her dreams - starting with the chores she can do to earn money (carrots), opportunities to practice singing, and progressing on to selling songs/albums that might not make her rich or famous, but will give her a sense of satisfaction knowing that she earned her success。 Bun is cute and full of enthusiasm (and questions!) and kids will totally relate to her wanting to be rich and famous (and quick!)。 Some sneaky math included! 。。。more
