Editorial Book Review:

By Mabel Norquist


I found Helen Kakouris' A Dollar is Magic to be a pleasant and informative book for young children. The novel successfully mixes important financial principles while presenting them in an entertaining and inventive manner. Through magical experiences, the characters learn valuable money lessons, such as the need of saving and making wise financial decisions. The characters’ experiences are relatable, and the magical aspects of the story make these lessons accessible and enjoyable, keeping the narrative engaging and easy to follow for children.


One of the things I liked most about the book is how it simplifies complex financial ideas without being overwhelming for children. The storytelling is colorful, and the way the teachings are woven into the tale makes them simple for children to understand. For example, when the characters learn to make financial decisions, the novel portrays saving, spending, and giving in a fun, empowering manner that can stimulate discussions on financial responsibility between children and parents.


Another standout feature is the book’s ability to foster curiosity and imagination while still teaching practical skills. The charm of A Dollar is Magic lies in how it blends creativity with real-world knowledge. The children’s journey feels magical and fun, but the underlying messages about money management are crystal clear.


Overall, this book is an excellent resource for parents and educators looking to teach financial literacy to young children in a meaningful and engaging way. A Dollar is Magic's combination of amusing tales and practical teachings ensures that its readers will remember it for a long time. It's the ideal combination of entertainment and instruction, making financial literacy an interesting path for children.
