Description

Everyone could buy and sell their goods in the lovely town of Rushington. That is, until the wolves came. They enticed the animals to vote to put them in charge in return for an unlimited supply of free ice cream. Do you think the wolves delivered on their promise? Read and find out how Asher the Fox sees what the town really will look like when the wolves take over and how, without the wonders of the free market, poverty sets in. Activities and discussion questions in the back of the book relay how communism isn’t fair, how competition creates better products, and how capitalism makes people want to create value for others. The author, Jack Posobiec, also adds suggestions for discussion. QR codes offer additional instructions on how to play the games. Softcover. 51 pgs. ~ Gina
