Description:

Discover the path your money takes as it goes for everything from the raw materials used to make a product, to the workers who produce it and the advertisers who promote it.

Synopsis:

What happens to your money after you hand it to the cashier? You pay for that cool pair of shoes or a new CD. But what happens to that money once it leaves your hands? Who actually pockets it or puts it into the bank? This lively, kid-friendly book answers these questions and more: ? Why are designer jeans so much more expensive than no-name ones? ? Why does a burger cost $4.50 when the ingredients only cost $1.38? ? How do credit cards work? Discover the trail your money takes as it goes to pay for everything including the raw materials used to make a product, the workers who produce it, and the advertisers who promote it. Humorous illustrations demystify the process by providing a visual breakdown of all the elements involved in monetary transactions. Accessible and fun, Follow Your Money is a vital introduction to the way money flows.
