From the early days of traders and trappers to today’s global online marketplace, business is the glue that holds our world together. In Entrepreneurship: Create Your Own Business, children learn what it takes to transform a great idea into their own new business. Through plenty of hands-on activities, art and history meet economics and math while young readers gain a solid understanding of how a business works.
Kids use familiar resources to develop a business idea of their own, create a presentation for potential investors, and utilize basic cost and price analysis worksheets. The skills they learn by writing a business plan, creating a prototype of an item to sell, designing packaging, and finding ways to advertise their products translate into language, math, and problem-solving skills that are relevant across all subjects. Cartoon illustrations, fun facts, and interviews with successful entrepreneurs make Entrepreneurship entertaining and informative. Supplemental materials include a glossary, list of resources, and an index.
Entrepreneurship meets common core state standards in language arts for reading informational text and literary nonfiction; Guided Reading Levels and Lexile measurements indicate grade level and text complexity.

Bookloons

Jennifer Schulze, MSEd, Reading Specialist Instructor, Western Oregon University
“Kahan packs a ton of great information into a supportive format that takes readers from the background of business and entrepreneurship to creating, managing, selling, and looking to the future of their own businesses. The text is easy to read and understand, and contains wonderfully rich vocabulary.”
Marla Conn, educational consultant
“I LOVE the life lessons and strategies presented in Entrepreneurship. This title gets kids ready for college and career. It says, ‘What do you want to be when you grow up? Now read, think, apply, write, and do something about it!’”
Amy Lyon, EdD, fifth grade teacher
“Success has everything to do with perceiving ‘failures’ as opportunities for growth. Students will benefit from this idea and plenty more from this child-centered book while they identify their own passions to drive their business objectives.”
Kristen Goulet, fifth grade teacher

Cities: Discover How They Work
Booklist
“Propounding the emerging interdisciplinary paradigm of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and design, and mathematics), this hands-on informational book discusses how cities’ complex structures and systems function together in an interdependent way. Through appealing illustrations, reader-friendly text, and fun hands-on experiments suitable for home and classroom, Reilly helps foster an appreciation for the way that cities function almost as organisms with vibrant systems and interdependent structures.”

Publisher's Weekly
"Ceceri’s cartoon-illustrated activity book, an addition to the Build It Yourself series, introduces readers to robotics, with information on its history, different robot technologies, and the evolution of the field. . . Light in tone but dense with information, this guide should appeal to those who already have a strong interest in the topic and are ready for a hands-on challenge."
