Goldie is the new card on the block, the diva who's ready to shop 'til she drops and always foots the bill for her friends.

When Penny, Bill, and the rest of the cash crew map their travel plans, Goldie won't accept any penny-pinching. On her dime everything's an upgrade: a road trip becomes a fancy flight, a packed picnic turns into decadent doughnuts, and birdwatching gets replaced by a full-blown safari.

Despite her friends' warnings, it's not long before Goldie starts to feel spent. Without the dough to back up her pile of purchases, Goldie's heading toward a total swipe-out. She'll have to take charge and pay for her mistakes if she wants to earn back her place in the wallet--and the trust of her friends.

Readers of all ages will love this playful, punny introduction to credit cards as they follow Goldie's journey toward swiping smartly and discovering that there are some things money just can't buy.

Kimberly Wilson is an early financial literacy advocate, who feels many of the important things in life are priceless. She knew she wanted to introduce Goldie to the funny, punny, money crew of A Penny's Worth and A Dollar's Grand Dream (Page Street Kids) after noticing how often kids see adults pay with the swipe of a card. She works as a writer full-time and is an active member of SCBWI, 12x12, and several critique groups. She lives in North Carolina with her husband, two daughters, and puppy.

Mark Hoffmann tries to avoid debt and doughnuts when he uses his card. His parents deserve the credit for teaching him about not spending too much. In addition to illustrating children's books such as A Penny's Worth and A Dollar's Grand Dream (Page Street Kids), Mark also works as a college professor. He lives in Salem, New Hampshire.
