$18.50
What is the free market and why is it so important? Ethan and Emily embark on a fun field trip to learn how pencils are made using parts from all over the world—and how in an economy, people work together in harmony to produce helpful products that improve our lives.
Leonard Read’s classic essay “I, Pencil” comes to life in this engaging adventure featuring amazing illustrations to help children become immersed in the story.
Cooperation allows us to innovate, produce, and exchange products and services to improve our lives. Families will love the big ideas discussed in this book around spontaneous order, division of labor, competition, trade, and the free market. It will level up your family dinner discussions!
- Why is the economy important?
- Would it be a good or bad idea to have a few people tell everybody else how to make something? Why?
- Pick an object nearby—what does its family tree look like?
- How has your life been improved by the division of labor?
- Is there anything that you could make entirely on your own?
