What I thought of Max Your Money 

I think it is so important to teach the value of money to children from a young age, and this book is the perfect way how teens can learn how they can earn their money to how they can multiply it so they can save or use it. The book is very attractive with lots of pictures and coloured segments to keep children’s attention.  Using different sized fonts as well breaking the sections down makes it easy to understand.  I’ve actually read the book and really enjoyed finding out so many facts about how the rich make their money to how they spend it.  I also do think little pointers such as The dangers of using a credit card teaches children that the plastic card is not a magic money machine.

What my 12- year-old thought of Max Your Money 

I think that this book is perfect when teaching people about money, jobs and things about them. This book has a chapter on every topic about money you could ever think of and it is very useful. It has colourful pages and lots of pictures which helps me to understand what they are writing about. It says things like what jobs pay well, what don’t pay well and how to earn money, use it and grow it.

I thought the book was interesting and good for jobs because it told you what the pay check was as well as the positive and negative of each job such as a footballer or even a teacher. The book also tells you if you should aim to get that particular job or not.  One negative thing about the book is that it is quite heavy so not really portable.
