Economics provides an easy-to-understand explanation for children about the economy, its impact on our daily lives and how it affects society.
Where does economics come from? Why do we use it? And how can it affect the world around us? As part of the My World series, Economics is a book designed to provide an easy-to-understand explanation about the complex world of economics that children may often hear about on news whenever the topics of ‘inflation’ and the ‘rising cost of living’ are mentioned.
This book concisely explains what basic economic ideas and theories are, how economic activity affects our everyday lives and how our societies and the wider world are shaped by its structures and rules. From car boots sales to large global businesses, this book explores how economic theories help to explain not only how we act as earners, savers and consumers, but also how places like schools and hospitals are run.
Accompanied by colourful and characterful illustrations, the subject of economics is regarded in the simplest, most objective way possible, so that children have all the information they need to understand the world around them and the role economics plays within it.

* @bookgiftblogger *This is a pretty neat book for kids to learn the basic concepts of economics and how it affects our communities and society. It has easy to understand concepts of how economics affects our every day lives. It covers everything from yard sales to large global businesses and is pretty fascinating. This would be neat for kids interested or curious about economics for sure!
* @booksgrowminds *In his usual fashion, Altarriba’s sequencing of topics explained is carefully considered so that each new subject (there are almost forty in all) segues logically into the next. With its wealth of infographics and illustrations children can discover such things as how money works, the things you can do in a bank, what happens in the stock exchange and much more. Altogether an excellent and illuminating introduction to a topic that is something of a mystery to all too many of us.
-- Jill Bennett * Red Reading Hub *An ideal introduction to the concept and subject of economics and how it is relevant to their lives and the lives of their families, "Economics" by author/artist Eduard Altarribo is thoroughly 'kid friendly' in tone, organization, and presentation -- and very highly recommended for family home schooling curriculums, as well as elementary school, middle school, and community library Money/Finance collections.
