Penny Wise
For ages 8–11 years

PENNY WISE is ten. She wants to know what ‘money’ is really about and why grown-ups make such a fuss about it. So she decides to find out more and keeps a journal of her discoveries...

The ‘Penny Wise’ books develop the pupil’s interest and awareness of personal finance issues through Penny’s eyes as she writes about, and illustrates, her own experiences of money, its effect on her and her family, and her attempts to make sense of it. The books are fun, amusing and entertaining.

The 'Penny Wise' resource consists of four pupil books:
• Penny Wise finds out about Borrowing
(NEW)
• Penny Wise finds out about Saving
(NEW)
• Penny Wise finds out about Bills
• Penny Wise finds out about Taxes

There are also two teacher's books:
• Penny Wise finds out about Borrowing and Saving
• Penny Wise finds out about Bills and Taxes
