Alright
The book is useful, and tells you a lot of things that are vital to starting a business. However, most thinks she tells you about can be found anywhere, such as online. It doesn't have information that you can't find somewhere else. But the part in the beggining about Kids in business is kind of cool.

dumb

Perfect to talk about the Penny
This is a fabulous book.It not only shows children how important the penny can be but also gives wonderful facts about the Penny's history.At my school, we use it to discuss our Penny Harvest--a time when we collect pennies for charity!Also the illustrations are magnificent! ... Read more

the kid's okay
this is a good, easy read and i definitely recommend it for teenagers or people that are just starting to build some financial knowledge. the basic concepts are explained quite well, and the language is clear and straightforward. however, he sometimes sounds like a broken record and constantly admonishes the reader to use mutual funds and save money and not take risks- again and again, and it kinda gets old after awhile. this book could probably be written in about half it's length if that weren't the case.

Reduce Risk by... putting your money in the bank?
This book is mainly for those who are extremely afraid of risking money in individual stocks or smaller kids (<12) The only stocks he likes are index funds. Otherwise, its CDs or something having to do with the bank. The author is ultra-concerned about risk, and he's 13 years old. His ultra-concern about risk gets very annoying and repetitive after you've read 50 pages.
Disappointed by theme developed inTeenage Investor
Purchased Teenage Investor for my grandchildren but decided not to give it to them.While the book gives a reasonable survey of the stock market it promotes the negative theme throughout that we, average investors, cannot succeed and would be better off buying mutual funds.(So, why write a book about investing?)

great reference book
This is a really good book to use whenever you need to know something about starting a business.For me, it wasn't something that I would want to read cover-to-cover.As a 14-year-old, there was one thing I could really do without: the sketchy pictures of wizards and dragons.They're just plain corny, and something that I don't want to look at when I'm thinking about starting a business.But don't worry, it's not that bad, you just have to be able to ignore things very well.Don't let it stop you from buying the book, cause other than that, it's pretty good.I am glad that I have it, and I would reccomend it to the ambitious teenager.

GREAT BOOK, A MUST BUY
