The Adventures of Penny & Buck: Saving the World One Coin at a Time

In this laugh-out-loud financial adventure, two best friends-Penny, a super-saver with a spreadsheet for everything, and Buck, a fun-loving spender who once blew his allowance on a 6-foot gummy worm-are sucked into the magical world of Moneyville through a talking piggy bank named Oinky.

Together, they face outrageous spending temptations, glittery traps, sneaky advertisements, and a villain named Mr. Gimmie, who's on a mission to turn kids into broke impulse-buying zombies. Along the way, Penny and Buck must complete challenges, dodge foam cannons, resist sparkle hats, and even face down the Emergency Expense Monster and the ancient, wise Bankosaurus Rex.

Through humor-packed chapters and wild adventures, kids learn real-world money skills:

• The difference between wants and needs

• How to budget with the 3 Jars System (Save, Spend, Share)

• Why saving early and compound interest are financial superpowers

• The importance of an emergency fund

• And how to be smart with money without giving up the fun

By the time they return to the real world, Penny and Buck aren't just classmates-they're Certified Budget Masters, ready to face ice cream trucks, overpriced souvenirs, and the biggest boss of all: Real Life.

This book makes finance funny, accessible, and totally unforgettable for kids ages 7-12.
