I’ve yet to read this. This is NOT “that Lawn Boy” that was in the news. This is about starting a small business. 12+ and recommend a parent review until I more thoroughly evaluate it. A contebt concern I saw was that the child hides something from his parents.

A 12 year old boy begins to mow grass and earn money. Arnold, a client, who is also a stockbroker, teaches him about capitalism and investing his earnings. At age 12 life got very interesting.
