\nBook Summary: \;
\nHere is a clever blend of humor\, math wizardry\, and business know-how. As it cap tures the one-of-a-kind bond between brother and sister\, this poignant no vel also subtly explores how arguments can escalate beyond anyone's intent .
\nFor a full hour\, he poured lemonade. The world is a thirsty pla ce\, he thought as he nearly emptied his fourth pitcher of the day. And I am the Lemonade King.
\nEvan Treski is people-smart. He's good at ta lking with people\, even grownups. His younger sister Jessie\, on the othe r hand\, is math-smart--but not especially good at understanding people. S he knows that feelings are her weakest subject.
\nWith just five day s left of summer vacation\, Evan and Jessie launch an all-out war to see w ho can sell the most lemonade before school starts. As the battleground he ats up\, there really is no telling who will win--and even more important\ , if their fight will ever end.
