It's a great idea, but problems soon crop up: His attempts at selling candy and toys were shut down by the principal, but he has a new idea that he's sure will work - Chunky Comics - miniature comic books, hand-drawn, mass-produced and sold for a quarter each. His first ever bank deposit was $3,200 and then he decided that school would be a great place to make money. Although he enjoys many normal-kid activities, he's already working hard - raking leaves, shoveling snow, doing extra chores for cash and various other activities. "Lunch Money" focuses on Greg Kenton, a boy who is only in the sixth grade, but is already hard at work on planning a business empire. In each of his school stories, Andrew Clmeents manages to touch on many of the same issues, but always has something new to explore. Lunch Money is a page turning thriller and when you start to read it, you won't want to put it down. It's one of your typical self changing books, but with a fun twist. This story teaches you a great lesson about being selfish and learning how to share and respect others. Hoping to get permission to sell their books, realizing how unfair it was for the school to sell comics but Greg and Maura couldn't. Soon after finding this out, Greg and Maura sent a request to the school committee. Comic books, were advertised in the flyer. Greg later noticed a flyer for a book fair.

Later, the principal then again banned the comic books. After many arguments and a fight that ended with a bloody nose and a teacher almost passing out, Greg and Maura made a deal to publish their own combination of a comic and story for the students at school. Greg became furious against Maura thinking she was copying his idea. A mini book, short stories about unicorns. Maura, his neighbor, reproduced his idea into her own. The only bad thing about selling these mini comics, is it's giving Greg a lot of trouble. Little comic books, about the size of a credit card.


He thought of a genius idea to earn a load of more money. Even though his idea for great money making was snatched away, he quickly regained his creativity. He then thought of an idea, selling toys to his schoolmates, but the principle found out about it and banned him from selling them at school. He's always trying to earn money anyway he can, collecting bottles, extra chores, the works. In Lunch Money, Greg Kenton, a normal 12 year old kid, is obsessed about money.
