About The Book

It's hard when there are soooo many great things to buy! You want a toy, some ice-cream, a donut ... but you can't have it all. Money doesn't grow on trees, you know! Teach kids this valuable life lesson about where money really comes from, with a dollop of humor of course!

Teach children important life lessons with a dose of laughs!

How many children believe money exists only a plastic card or phone screen? It's hard to understand why your parents are constantly saying, "No, you can't have that."

Luckily, Heath McKenzie brings a fun new approach to discussing the concept of money, where it comes from, and what it's used for, with children of all ages.

With humor and relatability, caregivers and kids alike will enjoy this approachable story.

About The Author

Heath McKenzie lives and works in a very small suburb in Melbourne, Australia and has worked with numerous clients and publishers worldwide. Along with illustration (which he's been doing professionally since 2003) and writing (which he's been getting away with since 2013) he's managed to sneak in the odd bit of design work along the way.

When not drawing he's busily helping raise a little family with his lovely wife, collecting an unnecessary amount of toys and books and occasionally attempting ambitious culinary feats in the kitchen.
He also enjoys possibly a bit too much tea.
