Who doesn’t like a little sibling rivalry? Jessie and Evan Treski experience some during the last six days of summer vacation. Jessie is very smart and skipped the third grade and is going to be in the same fourth grade class as Evan. Evan doesn’t want her to be in his class. They won’t talk to each other because of this. So they start a lemonade war. They make a bet on who can earn one hundred dollars or more by selling lemonade by the end of summer. Jessie teams up with Evan’s crush – Meagan Moriarity. They aren’t just stirring up lemonade mix; they are stirring up some trouble too. Do you want to find out who wins? Pick up the book and read this fantastic story and you might end up in the war too!
I could not put this book down! I got it from school and read it in one day. It is not very lengthy, but a decent sized book. I was so into it, that when my mom called me for dinner I was startled. My favorite part was when Jessie sabotages Evan’s lemonade. The plan was downright dirty – literally! When Evan tried to get back at her, he went a little too far and it had a big effect. This book was just amazing!
This book is great for fourth, fifth, and sixth graders. The reader would get tips in running a business as well as an intriguing story. Be careful though, because you might break your ribs laughing so hard! -- E.D., Garden City
