Yes, you read that right. Every night I would write stories and poems on the bathroom wall during bath time with my then 4-year-old daughter. (Yes, I used bathroom tub crayons, I am not that crazy!) One night after surviving a major temper tantrum in a store over a new toy I refused to buy- I realize how I was headed down the wrong path with my child. Well meaning yes, but the wrong path for sure! I thought back to all the times and all the little things I couldn't resist buying her each time we went out. Oh it's just a dollar I would say. Not even thinking of the future that as she grew those dollar \"things\" would grow to $5 \"things\" which would then grow to $20 things-well you get the picture. So I thought to myself, I really need to teach this child the money doesn't grow on trees, it comes from working hard and earning it! And so my first book - The Money Tree was created on my bathroom wall that night over soap suds, giggles and a little shampoo in the eyes! Again and Again, we would write and re-write on our bathroom wall until my daughter and her friends, became my writers, my editors, my designers. But most of all they were really starting to get the message I was trying to convey. And now I can't wait to share this wonderful story with you! Besides, my husband re-did our bathroom and I am no longer allowed to write on the walls!\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.08 x 8.5 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 04, 2011\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47312967991545,"sku":"9780984703500","price":13.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/Bu03QhCPRQ9780984703500_9403236d-1ca3-4e21-9a6f-0a417d6f3560.webp?v=1769400266","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-money-tree-paperback-4","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
