I also liked A Kid's Guide to Earning Money by Tamra Orr. It covers the pros and cons of all kinds of work that kids can do, from mowing a neighbor's lawn to setting up their own business to working for another person or company. It also includes information on things like labor laws, taxes, etc. Great for curious and enterprising kids.

Independent Kids
There are a couple of books in our new nonfiction section that would help older kids who want to be more independent. I liked A Smart Girl's Guide to Staying Home Alone, published by the American Girl publishers. The book is full of great tips for staying safe, comfortable, and constructive, and it includes activities and quizzes that make it fun for kids to look through. It has everything, even no-bake snack recipes and fun activity ideas!
