Financial Garden Quest

Beschreibung

In Financial Garden Quest, eleven-year-old Selin trades volunteer hours for tokens in an abandoned Thornridge greenhouse. With three special beds—Quick-Save Crops, Growth Investments, and Community Shares—she learns budgeting, investing, risk management, and social responsibility. From compost purchases and emergency funds to market pricing and charity deliveries, every token allocation teaches a real money lesson. Alongside her friends Jai, Mari, and Owen, Selin faces pests, rainy days, and unexpected expenses, all while recording profits in her trusty greenhouse journal. By season’s end, she’s harvested more than vegetables—she’s grown invaluable financial skills rooted in teamwork and nature’s cycle.

You Were Right Joe - You Nailed...

J. T. McIntosh

You Were Right, Joe by J. T. McIntosh - You had it taped all the way, pal-but how come you didn't say this would happen to me?
I can't be sure you're getting this, Joe, but you've been right about so many of the other things, I guess you're very likely right about that, too.
You remember you figured that I wouldn't just materialize naked in the middle of a city street. You said I'd be a genuine human being of the time, correctly dressed and with some kind of personal history. But you warned me - and I appreciate this, Joe; you didn't have to warn me, but you did it - you warned me that there was no telling I'd be like me.
I may as well admit now I wasn't happy about that. I never was much to look at and there wasn't any danger of my becoming the heavyweight champion of the world. But I'd got used to being the way I was, and I didn't altogether like the idea of seeing a stranger's face every time I looked in the mirror.
If I'd known what I was going to be like, I'd never have done it. I'm sorry, Joe, but even for you I couldn't have faced it. Now that I'm here, though, I'll just have to make the best of it.
You were right, Joe, all along the line. Nobody ran screaming when I got here and I haven't been arrested. I was fitted into a spot that was made for me, dressed in the right clothes, able to speak the right language. I've got a name. And just as you said, I'm different. Different? That's like saying Gina Lollobrigida isn't like Aunt Phoebe!
When I first got here, I looked around, of course. I saw people walking about and colored buildings with hardly any straight lines in them. It took no more than a glance to show me this was a pretty advanced civilization, many centuries ahead of our time.
Before I did any more looking around, I did the second obvious thing. I looked down at what I could see of me.

The Hum Dinger Doblins

Albert Strasser

Out in the valley of Pink Painted Plums 
Live the Hum Dinger Doblins, who love sucking thumbs. 
They love it so much, they get carried away, 
and sometimes suck thumbs for 10 hours a day. 
But no, oh no, when they suck on their thumbs 
It causes them to always sit on on their bums. 
When they sit on their bums, they don’t do their jobs, 
So no one’s out pruning with their thingamabobs. 
This causes the ecosystem to all fall apart, 
So tune in to learn how they make a fresh start!
