Review: Illustrations Are Not In Canadian Currency - My son loves these math start books. This one is pretty good, it teaches counting out change. The only thing that I didn’t consider would be that the illustrations of the money are that of american currency. They also have pennies which is a bit outdated for our currency. My son is still enjoying the concept and the different looking money isn’t spoiling the overal lesson. This book is really well thought out and enjoyable to read. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 1,925,857 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 476 in Children's Books on Money & Saving 2,672 in Children's Early Learning Books on Numbers & Counting 4,925 in Children's Early Learning Books on Words | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 148 Reviews | ## Images ![The Penny Pot: An Educational Math Story About Face Painting, Friends, and Counting Coins for Kids (Ages 6-10): 2 (MathStart 3, 2) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91FGG+Z5QlS.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great! *by M***. on 18 April 2026* Great book for teaching about money. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Illustrations Are Not In Canadian Currency *by L***Y on 17 January 2019* My son loves these math start books.
