|  | Willie Wins by Almira Gilles, Carl Angel
Willie is tired of hearing about his father's childhood in the Philippines and wishes his dad would just concentrate on life in the United States. When a school assignment on saving money requires Willie to bring a bank into school, he is embarrassed by the Philippine coconut-shell piggy bank his father gives him for the project. To make matters worse, Willie's classmates tease him about the bank. Still, Willie's father has said that the bank has a special prize hidden inside--something valuable from his own childhood. What could it be and will it help Willie appreciate his family heritage? Illustrated with acrylic paintings. AUTHOR: Almira Gilles, Carl Angel
