Mum works really hard, but today there is no money left and no food in the cupboards. Forced to visit the local foodbank, Mum feels ashamed that they have to rely on the kindness of others, but her young daughter can still see all the good in her day like reading and drawing, and even the foodbank. Maybe one day things will be different but for now together they brighten up even the darkest of days. A moving insight into the sad rise and necessity of foodbanks from the perspective of society's most vulnerable, and an essential book to help develop empathy in younger readers.
Finding a million dollars in your back garden – every kid’s dream, right? That’s what me and my best friend Toby thought too.
Bouncy castles at school. Sweets for our adoring fans. Wearing sunglasses indoors (’cos that’s what all the millionaires do). There’s a lot you can get with a million dollars . . . including a whole lot of trouble.
Bonus tips on how to be a schoolyard millionaire inside!
Don’t you wish you’d started saving and investing when you were
younger? Well, this is the book that aims to get kids thinking about
the basics of money, and lay the solid foundation in financial
education that most of us never had. Featuring playful illustrations,
jokes, and fun facts designed to appeal to even the most easilybored
youngster, Manage Your Money Like a Grownup: The best money advice for
teens covers all the basics South African kids and teens need to know,
like:
- The relationship between earning, saving and spending;
- How investing works;
- Why compound interest is a superpower;
- Why we pay taxes; and
- The ethics of money.
Informed by conversations with real kids and their parents, this book

This full-color graphic novel poses the question: "Go to school,
get good grades, get a good job and invest in a 401(k)?" Not today!

Red and their entrepreneurial pursuits as they learn about money.
Key messages include: How to create assets and how to make your
money work for you--so you won't need to work hard for money all
