How to live on 5 cents a day ?
How to survive financial ruin without losing your house ?
How to keep to a bare bones budget and still have money left over to buy books ?
Tough questions! They were tough questions when Sarah Elizabeth Harper Monmouth penned her quirky memoir.
She lived on a run-down small farm in New Hampshire, when her investments imploded.
She awoke one morning to find herself poor--an old roof above her, “dearer than life,” but “not a dollar of money left.” For months she was “paralyzed with cold, clammy terror . . . stunned and knew not what to do.” Then her “mind stepped to the front with a bold standard displayed.” She said to herself
“Understand, once for all, that I rule and make your plans accordingly.”
Lizzie Monmouth’s tale will make you stop and count your blessings...
How Lizzie Monmouth surmounted her poverty is an equally fascinating tale.
Using a wide variety of stunning photographs, author Kevin Kurtz poses thought-provoking questions to help readers determine if things are living or nonliving. For example, if most (but not all) living things can move, can any nonliving things move? As part of the Compare and Contrast series, this is a unique look at determining whether something is living or nonliving.

Mama comes to the rescue and fixes Fuzzy, but she makes it clear: "I'll put Fuzzy on the stairs, until you're sure that you can share."
