Product Description

At last! A book about money which kids love to read. What most adults wish they had learned when they were younger. Five captivating stories place Chelsea and Jack in life situations which kids can relate to. Each story poses a challenge or a goal, a series of experiences, with a clear conclusion and lessons learned.
