5.0 out of 5 stars My son loves this.This changed how my son makes decisions. He now thinks about costs, benefits, and choices - even when picking a snack! It's not just a book, it's a mindset shift. Brilliant and practical 5.0 out of 5 stars a fun way to explain opportunity cost and cooperationThe Bremen Town Musicians, was a fun way to explain opportunity cost and cooperation. The characters work together instead of chasing risky, individual paths - showing that smart choices and teamwork lead to better outcomes. It's amazing how this little book packs such big lessons. My child not only enjoyed the stories but walked away asking thoughtful questions about value, patience, and making good decisions. Strongly recommended for any parent who wants to introduce their child to economic thinking in a warm, engaging, and story-driven way.
