We place a lot of demands on teachers. Too many!
We place too many demands on teachers. Budget pressures, outdated materials, long hours. Society can't pay you enough for the good work that you do. So when do you have time to teach your students about financial basics? Many teachers have found my books to be useful. The stories and illustrations are fun. Each book includes easy-to-understand educational back matter to assist with classroom instruction. The Council for Economic Education (CEE) has sponsored the development of free teacher supplements for Money Tales which can be found below.
In addition, the FoolProof Foundation has aligned Money Tales with the CEE JumpStart National Standards. That alignment can be found here.
Whether it’s Princess Persephone failing to read the fine print on a contract, or Arlene the giant tortoise falling victim to a Ponzi scheme, students will learn from the lessons of others making bad choices.

Attention High School Teachers: Would you like to help your students understand the causes of the 2008 Great Financial Crisis? Show this great documentary to them. You can also have your students read my book for teens about the crisis, Bullies of Wall Street. It’s important for young people to understand the kind of greed and short-sightedness that led to the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression so it doesn’t happen again!
