Summary

Twelve-year-old Mateo stumbles upon an ancient parchment in Castle Elarion, setting him on a thrilling Budget Treasure Hunt. Each hidden chest across the royal grounds demands a different coin cost—copper, silver, or brass—and each riddle teaches him budgeting basics: tallying totals, trading coins, and prioritizing wants over needs. Along the way, Mateo earns, borrows, and even finds windfalls, facing real-world lessons in saving, spending, and delayed gratification. By balancing immediate delights with long-term gains, he fills his ledger—and his heart—with triumph. Young readers will be captivated by this fun, comical quest that turns financial fundamentals into an epic adventure.

    Unlike other biographies, the Making of America series goes beyond individual narratives linking influential figures to create an overarching story of America's growth that will deepen understanding of the country we live in today. This bundle featuring Alexander Hamilton, Abraham Lincoln, and Andrew Jackson tells the story of American constitutional history from the founding of the nation through the end of the Civil War. Listeners will begin by learning about Alexander Hamilton, a man who envisioned his country as a multi-racial, urbanized, capitalistic America with a strong central government. Hamilton's story epitomizes the American dream and leads nicely into the story of Andrew Jackson. Born in the Carolina backwoods, Jackson joined the American Revolutionary War at the age of thirteen. He then went on to become a consequential, polarizing figure in history. Finally, Abraham Lincoln's life and contributions are considered. One of America's most beloved presidents, Lincoln guided the United States through the Civil War, helped end slavery in America, and strengthened the federal government. Each historical figure discussed in this bundle made an everlasting impact on America's trajectory, and their contributions can be seen in almost every facet of our government.

She takes Clancy for a tour of the property in the old ute and when they are a distance away from the homestead, she lets Clancy take control of the vehicle. The result is disastrous when Clancy mistakes the accelerator for the brake. The ute is undriveable and so they must walk back to the homestead.
