The Amazing Adventures of 4¢ Ned (Coinworld: Book One)
ByPublisher Description
Don't meddle with the metal.
The world has a new hero, but he's short a penny.
Stamped with a one-cent handicap, laughed at inside every purse or pocket he dropped into, Ned Nickel never believed he'd amount to much, not even a cheap cigar. But when fate places Ned rim to rim with a sagacious Indian nickel, the four-center learns that he has a most surprising destiny.
Chief Iron Tail instructs Ned in the ways of "wampum," and Ned soon discovers that his puny diameter contains a million bucks of e pluribus awesome. Teaming up with a luckless Lincoln wheat penny, the three coins sally forth to save Coinworld from a worthless future and become the champions of small change everywhere.
A bigger story never came in a smaller package.

3.0
“I give it 3.5 stars. Very creative and entertaining. It seemed at first like it might have been written for younger people, but there are a lot of historical references, and it is quite serious for being such a whimsical story line. I very much enjoyed it and will read the next in the series.”
“"I liked it." but I didn't love it. I didn't realize that this was a multiple book series - 7 books at the moment and it doesn't seem like the finale. It would be interesting to see how views about women and non-white people are treated in future books of the series because the way that native americans and POC are referenced in this book is not very modern, but it goes with the time frame, so I won't slam it for that. In some ways it was like a children's book, in other ways it was like https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18144590.The_Alchemist , full of moral lessons. In some ways it was very christian/religious, in other ways it was woo woo. As other reviewers say, it's a unique book and definitely worth trying out. I would have read the next book if it were a 2-3 book series, but I'll stop here for now. That being said, in a couple of months I may ask myself, oh come on, you know you want to see what's happening next with Ned and his pals.”
