Cents of Humour is a funny, action-packed book that introduces children to different types of currency. Parents can read along with their kids and discuss some terms of currency, ways how money was and is used, and the fact that Canadian pennies are no longer minted because they cost more than a penny to make. The story also opens discussions about debit, credit, crypto, inflation and counterfeiting.
