description: It'¬?s 1925 and Donna Delle Philp'¬?s legs have grown too long for the family'¬?s old washtub. But with her parents busy making ends meet on the farm, it'¬?s up to Donna to find a solution. After months of toil-and some help from her brother and sisters-she earns enough money to buy the family a real bathtub. This warm, true story illustrates the value of a dollar and what can be accomplished by working together toward a goal. Loaded with primary source material. Wonderful addition to an American history, math, or economics curriculum.
