Billy and The Lemonade Stand is a wonderfully crafted story that teaches children the value of working hard and dealing with adversity in a positive way.Billy longs for a red toy airplane that he notices in a store one day while out shopping with his mother but is unsure of how to ask for the money. “Can I have twenty-five dollars to get a plane I saw at the store? I will help you do dishes for a week.” Billy’s dad, seeing how bad he wants the toy plane, wants nothing more than to run to the store and get it, but the family cannot spare the extra money right now.Disappointed, Billy decides that he is going to try and get the money for the airplane on his own. He enlists the aid of his good friends, Mandy and Josh, to help him. Together, the trio set out into the small town of Hillside to open their lemonade stand and see if they can make enough money to get Billy his airplane.

Middle schooler Josh Lewis and his younger sister Mandy are looking forward to escaping the stuffy summer heat of Forest Hills, New York, and spending a month with their grandparents in rural Litchfield, Kentucky. But fresher air and more space to run aren’t the only things that set this month apart from the rest of their year. It’s also a time to reconnect with grandparents Albert and Elaine Lewis, Orthodox Jews who, years before, chose to leave their large Jewish community in Brooklyn, New York to settle and raise their family in the rural south. Josh and Mandy’s father never really adjusted to being in the minority in a small town where churches dotted Main Street; it caused him to resent Albert’s adherence to traditional Jewish practices, and provided impetus for him to leave as soon as he was old enough, and return to New York to establish his own more secular Jewish life and family. While dimly aware of the friction between their father and grandparents, the children adore spending time in Litchfield. This summer turns out to be especially fun though, because of the Lewis’ new neighbors. The Myers family has three children who become fast friends with Josh and Mandy. Together they fill their hours with activities most city kids just dream about: riding bikes all around town, building a clubhouse in the Myers’ backyard and selling lemonade on the street corner. But when Josh and Mandy’s parents experience a crisis back home in New York, the children develop a plan that turns one of these activities – the lemonade stand -- from innocent childhood fun into a symbol for justice and unity.
