<The pitch: “We often forget the simple ways to teach our children something,” Diane Jochimsen writes. “Tony Townsley and Mark St. Germain in ‘Three Cups’ provide a valuable message for teaching children a simple way to handle money. The book has wonderful illustrations and keeps a child’s interest along with a gentle reminder for the adult who is reading.

“Not only is this a good book to read to your children or grandchildren, but as a hard-copy cover, it is an excellent gift.”
