Moneybunny is a popular series by Cinders McLeod for teaching young children about financial literacy.
The illustrations in the books are cute and approachable, making them a great introduction for young readers to learn about financial planning, whether it is earning, saving, spending, and giving money (or in their case, carrots!).
This set contains the following books:
1. Earn It!
In this delightful introduction to the simple concept of earning money, an exuberant little bunny learns that fame and fortune must be earned.
Bun wants to be rich and famous. She loves to sing and knows she's meant for a career on stage. It should all be pretty easy—her mom can just drive her to the concert hall to perform!
But her mom reminds her that most good things, like the garden they are growing, take time and work.
At first, Bun isn't terribly excited by the idea of singing lessons and practice, but as she does the math and daydreams about her future singing career, the more she starts to like the idea of earning her way to stardom—a feeling just as good as being rich and famous!
2. Spend It!
A charming look at simple money concepts in which a bunny learns he can't buy everything he wants with his allowance!
Sonny gets three whole carrots a week for his allowance and wants to buy everything with it! But he soon discovers his money won't go that far, and his mom tells him he needs to make some choices.
That doesn't sound like much fun to Sonny, especially when he learns that the bouncy castle he's been eyeing goes for ONE HUNDRED carrots. Ridiculous!
But eventually, after a little math and a little more thinking, he has a blast discovering what's really important to him and worth spending his carrots on
3. Save It!
A little bunny learns about the power and satisfaction that come with saving money.
Honey earns two carrots a week for taking care of her siblings. Her FIVE siblings who are so loud and bouncy, she wishes she had a place of her own to escape to for some peace and quiet.
So what's a bunny to do? Get creative and figure out a savings plan—even if it means forgoing a treat or two. But saving is worth it because with a little patience and perseverance, Honey will be able to make her dream of having her owns space come true!
4. Give It!
Chummy longs to be a superhero. He wants to save the world—or at least Bunnyland—from dragons, so spending his carrots on a superhero costume seems like a great plan!
When his grandma reminds him that there aren’t any dragons in Bunnyland, but that there are creatures that could use help, Chummy starts reconsidering the best way to spend his wad.
