Mom's birthday is only 1 day away and Laura needs to buy Mom a gift. She runs a lemonade stand to raise money. Charts show readers the ingredients she buys at the store. Readers are encouraged to count along as she sorts cups by colors and sizes. They're prompted to complete the addition problem that shows them how much money the lemonade stand made. They subtract objects at the store while Laura's deciding on a gift. This book can be paired with Laura's Lemonade Stand (9781477720790) to provide the alternative point of view on the same topic.
