Includes a table of contents, glossary, index, websites and books for further information, and discussion questions. The How Money Works series gives an in depth, yet easy to understand look at how economic systems work.

Sometimes money conversations are just too abstract for young learners. These lively and colorful books relate money matters in a way your elementary/middle-schoolers will understand. The text is broken into small bits using language that makes sense. At the same time, kids will learn loads of new vocabulary words. I love the structure of building up from a personal to a global framework. Color photos and illustrations, including charts & graphs, show the reader what is important. Kids are never too young to learn how to handle money, and this is a great age for teaching concrete concepts and expanding out into the world around them. Each book has an index, glossary, discussion questions, and additional resources to explore. Perfect for a classroom, library, or a unit study on money and economics. 7.5"x 9.5", 64 pgs each, pb. ~Sara
