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.

i liked the book but it it was to short

I read this book a bunch of times and I really like this book. I think Evan really needs to chill out. By the way I did not know there were more series so I might read them

The lemonade war is ok. not the best book I read but still good

The lemonade war was a great book. If you deal with sibling rivalry and competition this would be a great connection. Great book if you are looking for something to do!
