For a full hour, he poured lemonade. The world is a thirsty place, he thought as he nearly emptied his fourth pitcher of the day. And I am the Lemonade King.

Fourth-grader Evan Treski is people-smart. He’s good at talking with people, even grownups. His younger sister, Jessie, on the other hand, is math-smart, but not especially good with people. So when the siblings’ lemonade stand war begins, there really is no telling who will win—or even if their fight will ever end. Brimming with savvy marketing tips for making money at any business, definitions of business terms, charts, diagrams, and even math problems, this fresh, funny, emotionally charged novel subtly explores how arguments can escalate beyond anyone’s intent.

hi hi

this book is so interesting i love it

It is very exciting and suspenseful because two siblings, Evan and Jessie, are trying to get more money than the other person by selling the most lemonade, which who will determine who wins the war. In the end, Evan stole Jessie's money and lost it at someone's house and she didn't know.

I have this book but i have'nt read any of it......

Every year I have an amazing lemonade stand. This book reminds me so much of myself. I think I would be more like Jessie though because I like to make lots of deals so that people will buy the lemonade. I would love it if there was a second book!
