Book Description
The Lemonade Stand is a collection of true stories of courage and perseverance contributed by nineteen inspiring women.Sometimes our biggest fears come to life--the tumor is malignant, you are going to prison, or you get that dreaded phone call in the middle of the night. When the worst kind of news arrives, it rocks your world. Finding that glimmer of hope to go on may seem impossible. Well, you've arrived at the right place. Welcome to The Lemonade Stand, where 19 brave women share their stories to surround you with grace. The Lemonade Stand is a true-story anthology--a legacy we are proud to carry forward with a unique twist. Courage and vulnerability are at the heart of each story. Triumph waits at each story's end. Author and contributor Michelle Faust wanted to share her story of perseverance with others. After writing a powerful essay about her struggles, she wanted to reach as many people as possible. As she began to share her story with those in her personal and professional network, she made an unexpected discovery. Others, too, had a common history of overcoming seemingly insurmountable tragedies, but just like Michelle, they had emerged with newfound strength and the desire to help others. She approached these brave women with the idea of sharing their collective wisdom in a book. The Lemonade Stand was born. While those sour lemons can invade both our entrepreneurial visions and success in life, they provide an opportunity to come together as a community of support. This book is a light for those in the dark. Expect to connect with a network of survivors. No matter how harrowing the ordeal, know that health, joy, and success do return, and are waiting on the other side of calamity.

Book Description
Don't Take My Lemonade Stand-An American Philosophy began when Janie Johnson was not fully satisfied with the answer she gave to her ten-year-old son when he asked, "How do you know who to vote for?" She reviewed what the "experts" (i.e. pundits, politicians, political scientists, etc.) had to say and learned much but still came away unsatisfied. Janie Johnson read the writings and examined the lives of our nation's founders along with those or more modern philosophers such as Thomas Sowell, Charles Krauthammer, Milton Friedman, Charles Kesler, Mark Steyn, and Winston Churchill to help develop her own American philosophy. She created one based on individual liberties that did not include the political corruption and intentional deception we see today. Politicians are "legally" corrupt; the political process is rigged against everyday people; government policies are critically flawed; and we the people are getting squeezed. Don't Take My Lemonade Stand-An American Philosophy has special sections to help parents teach their kids to think for themselves. Use it to take control of who teaches our kids and what they are being taught. The path to peace and prosperity is described in these pages. The issues are critical, and the time to take back our country is now.

Book Description
A good way to make money is to think of something to sell that will make you a profit. Opening a lemonade stand during summer can make you a profit if you keep track of the costs of the ingredients and the amount of money you will charge for each glass. If you add ice to the lemonade, you can sell more glasses because there will be less lemonade in each glass. Adding different ingredients such as blueberries will make your lemonade more appealing, and you may be able to sell more!
