HOW TO TURN UP INTO DOWN INTO UP

By

Pub Date: April 4th, 1978
Publisher: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich

Subtitled A Child's Guide to Inflation, Depression, and Economic Recovery, this sequel to How to Turn Lemons Into Money (1976) uses the same lemonade stand model to illustrate such further terms as WAGE-PRICE SPIRAL, INFLATION, UNEMPLOYMENT, and STIMULATING THE ECONOMY. It all starts here with a DIMINISHING SUPPLY of lemons, but ends with business BOOMING and the precocious entrepreneurs offering FRANCHISES FOR SALE. But this is strictly for kids whose coinage is big words, regardless of their backing.
