“I've read the ‘The Wishful Penny’ in my 5th grade class for the last couple of years.  It's a wonderful book and the students thoroughly enjoy it!  The funny thing is, I was introduced to your book in a grad class at Mount St. Mary’s College.  We spent weeks talking about your book and how it fits nicely across disciplines."
