I purchased several copies of this book to use in business literacy training for employees at my organization. It helped the rank-and-file to understand the numbers on the financial statements and what they can help to improve them. The authors did a great job of taking a complex topic and explaining it in a way that anybody can understand. Who among us didn't try our hand at a Lemonade Stand when we were young. It has some elements of a textbook, ie., a test at the beginning and end, but most definately doesn't feel like a textbook. I received positive comments from all who went through it with me, including a 13 year-old girl or should I say, a 13 year-old accountant.
