本書以一隻與眾不同的撲滿小豬為主角，從一開始就打破「慢慢存錢」的傳統形象。Piggy 一心想快速達成存錢目標，四處搜刮零錢，沙發縫、口袋、洗衣籃，全都不放過，彷彿一台高速運轉的存錢機器。然而，急著前進的 Piggy 卻忘了最重要的事：耐心。他沒讀過撲滿使用手冊，也沒留意塞子是否放好，結果一路掉錢、目標落空。當忙碌與空虛同時出現，Piggy 才慢慢明白，真正的累積不是速度，而是持續與等待。本書以輕快的故事，帶出「慢慢來」的價值，讓孩子在笑聲中，理解存錢與成長其實很相似。Descended from a long line of patient, persistent savers, this piggy bank breaks the mold, flying in fast with a goal to gather cash. He's a supersonic saving machine! When his friends give him his first savings goal, Piggy hits the scene, rallying coins and cash in all the classic spots--from couch cushion to laundry pockets. Go pig or go home! But in his rush to save, Piggy leaves behind his stopper, and forgets to read The Official Bank Handbook, trailing the coins he's collected and failing to meet his savings goals. With his high-speed ways leaving him empty inside, Piggy must come to his cent-ces--reading the handbook, playing it cool, slowly saving, and paying with patience--if he ever wants to hit his goals and live up to the Bank name.

Wisdom That Transforms Lives Twenty-five centuries ago, a man who had once lived in royal luxury walked barefoot across the dusty plains of India, sharing insights that would forever change human history. The Buddha—“the Awakened One”—dedicated forty-nine years of his life to illuminating the path beyond suffering for all who would listen. This first volume presents 36 stories from the Buddha’s life and the lives of his disciples, each revealing the Buddha’s remarkable ability to meet people where they were and guide them toward realization. Readers will discover the Buddha’s insights on the importance of kindness, right speech, right actions, and community living that remain profoundly relevant to our lives today. Each story concludes with “Words of Wisdom” that connect ancient guidance to contemporary challenges.
