Three Cups

As soon as we receive a book in the mail our girls want to immediately sit down and read it.  And this was no exception.  Three Cups is about a five-year-old boy who is given three cups from the family cupboard for his birthday. He then learns how to divide his allowance between three cups; saving, spending, and giving. 


My personal take is that the story is short, sweet, and to the point.  As a Mom I really did expect the storyline to have a little more to it as I thought it ended rather abruptly.  I also thought the pictures in the book appeared rather dull and should have been brightened up somehow.  At any rate, at the end of the book my 3 daughters did want to each have 3 cups of their own.  So the book did achieve it's point. 


I received a complementary copy of Three Cups through the Thomas Nelson Publishing Booksneeze program in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own.
