    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Leonardo.

    • Samuel G. HerreraOwnerAnswer

      Calculator, stationery and a school bag is $115 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Fair thing to want to know.
