This book shows the clash of two personalities, much less siblings. Evan is creative, with good people skills, his sister, Jessie, is logical and good with numbers. When their stand starts to gain popularity, an argument divides them and the sibling rivalry is alive and well.

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.

This book was great. I couldn't put it down. I seriously recommend it. It is impossible to put this book down! I loved this book!!
I want to read this book. My friend has this book. i also like the cover. I wonder what it is about. I hope my friend would let me read it.
Good book! I think it could use some improving though. I read this book during a school program called battle of the books. Thanks for reading my review
I really liked the concept of this book. The author did a great job in showing a common relationship between siblings. This is a really good book and is impossible to put down!
The Lemonade war is a fantastic book! This is because the author, Jacqueline Davies made the reader non-stop reading the book. This is because in the book she made one sibling do something bad to the other and then the reader would want to know what the other sibling would do if he/she finds out. After, that sibling would take revenge on the one that did something bad. For example; Jessie was mad at Evan so she put bugs in his lemonade, so he can’t sell the lemonade. When Evan found out there were bugs in his lemonade, he was confused. After that, he found out that Jessie did it, he got mad and stole every piece of Jessie’s money. Last, he lost it and had to explain, and then Jessie had to explain. So, The Lemonade War was over, basically.
I love this book, Jacqueline Davis is such a creative writer I love all of her books, and this probably isn't relevant, but I also love Lemonade so whenever I read her books I think of lemonade and it makes my mouth water!
I like this book very interesting ! Since I like all books I read I recommend to anyone!I love love Love it great book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Anyone can read it!
The Lemonade War is about a sibling rivalry that gets a little too out of hand. If you like reading about people who fight and try to beat each other, than you should read this.
