Economics for Beginners

My kids both needed a little more in the economics explanation department and this is doing the trick. I’m also learning some too. Much more fun than it seems.

10 year old loved the book

It was a wonderful shopping experience, miles away, and the books were in good condition

Overall, it is a very well-put-together book. I give it four stars because of a mistake on page 25. The Persian word for market is Bazaar. The Arabic word for market is šūqā. A simple Google search would have helped prevent confusing the two languages.

I found this book at the library. I'm not interested in economics, but I am a fan of educational comics, so I decided to check it out. Like I said, I have no interest in economics. Every time I've attempted to learn more about the financial side of life, by reading books or listening to lecture, it put me to sleep. This book hasn't bored me to tears, because the illustrations really help clarify ideas. As an adult, I've even learned some things reading the book. So in conclusion: great book and I wish there were more educational comics as the format really helps delivering boring information in a fun way.

I bought this book in hopes of being able to simplify and break down what economy is for my kids. I skimmed through it as soon as it arrived and it already seems like it will be very helpful. The colorful pictures and the way everything is broken down looks promising. Can’t wait to dive in with the kids.
