Shopping Savvy

School Library Journal

Gr 7-10-- Very basic guidelines for shopping, budgeting, and prioritizing needs are presented in this clear, readable title. Large text, abundant white space, bullets, and frequent subheadings are combined with black-and-white and full-color photographs to make a visually appealing book that can be easily scanned for information. In seven short chapters Milios addresses issues related to shopping for clothing, groceries, gifts, and big-ticket items. Brief advice for returning purchases and filing complaints is included. A useful resource for novice shoppers seeking guidance. --Dona Weisman, Northeast Texas Library System, Garland
