Welcome to the magical land of Economics for Kids: Lessons from Fables & Fairy Tales featuring Canberra - the capital city of Australia's landmarks.

This book was inspired by a curious boy's endless questions about the world, how the economy works, and my passion for making complex ideas accessible and enjoyable for children. As a mother, economist, author and educator, I've always believed that learning should be an adventure filled with fun, curiosity, and discovery. Economics is often seen as a topic for adults, but the truth is that kids encounter economic principles every day. Whether it's through sharing toys, saving allowance, or deciding how to spend their birthday money.

Description:

Globalisation: The Ant and the Dove - Winners and Losers introduces children to the concept of globalization through the beloved fable of The Ant and the Dove. The book explores how trade, cooperation, and collaboration between countries lead to economic growth, but also highlights that not everyone benefits equally from globalization.

Key Lessons:

• • Globalization - Winners and Losers: Kids learn how globalization connects countries and creates opportunities, but they also understand the importance of fairness and sustainability to ensure that no one gets left behind.
  • The Global Village: The book shows how countries specialize in their strengths-similar to how the Ant and the Dove work together-and how this teamwork drives economic growth, innovation, and shared prosperity.
  • Cooperation and Fairness: The story highlights the importance of cooperation and fairness in a globalized world, teaching children why collaboration leads to mutual success and prosperity.

  Educational Purpose:

  Part of the Economics for Kids series, this book makes the complex topic of globalization easy to understand for young readers. Through engaging storytelling, it helps kids grasp the interconnectedness of countries and how trade and collaboration contribute to a better world.

  Globalisation: The Ant and the Dove - Winners and Losers encourages children to think critically about global connections, fairness, and the role of teamwork in economic success. Perfect for young learners, parents, and educators, this book inspires curiosity about how the world works and the importance of global cooperation.

  Thank you for joining us on this exciting and unique educational journey.

  I wish you and your children find these lessons both informative, memorable and fun!
