The Little Books of Big Business is a series published by Success Street Coaching. Our mission is to empower kids with financial literacy knowledge through entrepreneurship. We are building a bridge to financial conversations for kids 7 – 13 so they can be financially savvy teens and financially independent young adults.
These books are fun and easy to read and can inspire conversations and teach financial literacy principles. Our vision is to share the adventures of Cat, Emma, Max & Nick as a way to engage kids and adults to build confidence and capacities with practical money skills and basic business concepts and terminology.
