For a full hour, he poured lemonade. The world is a thirsty place, he thought as he nearly emptied his fourth pitcher of the day. And I am the Lemonade King.

Fourth-grader Evan Treski is people-smart. He’s good at talking with people, even grownups. His younger sister, Jessie, on the other hand, is math-smart, but not especially good with people. So when the siblings’ lemonade stand war begins, there really is no telling who will win—or even if their fight will ever end. Brimming with savvy marketing tips for making money at any business, definitions of business terms, charts, diagrams, and even math problems, this fresh, funny, emotionally charged novel subtly explores how arguments can escalate beyond anyone’s intent.

A accurate description of how brothers and sisters get along.A book describing the silly fights we have with family . it is a book of sabotages,competition , and family.A well made book by the amazing author you alll know

It was ok. It is about a brother and sister,Evan and Jessie, and they are different. Evan is smart at social skills, while Jessie is smart, like math smart. But they do a contest who can sell the most lemonade, and I really think it is like the tapper twins go to war, only fighting over lemonade. I thought it was ok.

I loved this book! If I had to make a quick summary, it would go like this: Evan and Jessie are siblings, and love each other a lot. But when Evan sets up a lemonade stand without her, Jessie decides to set one up, too. Soon, the Lemonade War begins. Whoever can get $100 in lemonade sales and only lemonade sales, can take the winner's money. Who will win? Read the book to find out!😁

The Lemonade War I thought could have been better. Although, the author did use realistic feeling in this story like how Evan and Jessie fight because its not a perfect world. The whole main idea was simple, although I thought there could me more too it like how they didn't really describe the characters. Otherwise The Lemonade War was good! Anyone who likes money or lemonade should read this!

the more i think about it the more i like this book. it instantly hooked me in. i have a feeling this would happen to everybody too. so i reccomend this book to all.
