A one-dollar ($1) bill named Unique Dollar Billy (UDB) learns much about life while living with different families. He loves sharing and writing about his exciting experiences in an amusing and remarkable manner. Each book in the UDB Series is a collection of short stories. In the second book, UDB Expands Horizons, UDB lives with three families, all very different. He tells us about his adventures with them. UDB finds himself with a set of triplets in the Greene family. He understands them extraordinarily well as he has been a part of several triplets himself, including one set that call themselves the The Three Billeteers club. UDB moves from the Greenes to the Stone and Eldridge families. After living with two sets of teenagers in the last two families, UDB claims to have become quite fluent in teenage lingo. Through UDB's humorous experiences, children will read about different neighborhoods, countries, their currencies, ethnic attire and foods. I hope that they will learn to take pride in their diversity and find that it lends spice to life. Upon meeting up with the lowest denomination of currency from different countries, UDB remarks, Although we are different colors and have different people printed on us, we have one important thing in common: we each have the number one printed on us. Guess why? Because we are THE number ONES! UDB tells us that being different actually makes one special. It means that each and every one of us is unique, like himself. A revealing thought for children. UDB says, When we are born, we are lumped in huge $1 bundles with no identity. Once we are made into spending money, we travel and obtain marks, scratches, botches, splotches, blemishes, pimples, colors, and discolorations to make us who we are. As we grow, we begin to develop different personalities, talents, and skills. It is these different markings and personality traits that makes us unique individuals, even though we started out as clones. Gosh, I am becoming so serious and thoughtful, aren't I? Children will encounter many new words in this book. However, as they keep reading the stories, the meanings become clear. There are many Wow! moments to enjoy with UDB. The author, Sea Kay, would like children to have fun reading UDB's continued adventures and laugh out loud. Happy reading!
