What people are saying

Young reader holding Start Young and Build Freedom
My son is re-reading it and insists on bringing the book with him to school. He's been a reluctant reader in the past, so I'm very happy.

Every part of this book made me feel motivated to start managing my own money, and I think it will help motivate other teens too.

Frequently Asked Questions

What ages is the book best for?

Start Young and Build Freedom was created primarily for ages 11–16, but younger and older readers can enjoy it too. It’s 272 pages, highly illustrated, story-driven, and designed to make entrepreneurship, money, and life skills genuinely fun to read.

What if my child isn’t a big reader?

We designed the book for reluctant readers. Short chapters, illustrations, stories, humor, and interactive ideas make it approachable even for kids who don’t normally read nonfiction.

Why is the book more expensive on Amazon?

It’s the exact same book. We’re able to offer special pricing when you order directly from Dream Publishing, so you may see a lower price here than on Amazon.
