Review: Lucky Beans

Lucky Beans by Becky Birtha
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Little boy growing up in the depression. He is tired of beans. Then he sees a prize of a sewing machine if someone guesses how many beans are in a giant crock. Using what he learned in school they counted beans into a quart jar and then figured out how many quarts were in the crock. They were only off by 13 beans and his mother won the sewing machine. Things got better after that because his mother could sew for money. But there were still a LOT of beans to eat.
