As a lifelong learner, I read a lot of books and among my favorite topics to learn about is the psychology of the brain and how we are wired for behaviors. Since behavior is the primary determinant for financial success this is an important topic as studies have shown 85% of Americans are ill-prepared for the retirement they envision. 95% of our brains are formed by age 6 and many of our unconscious habits are created by this time.A light bulb went off in my head when I read that.I have a 4- and a 6-year-old at home. I read to them every night and thought, why would I not start planting that 'savings chip' in their brain as early as possible, when their brains are developing at the fastest rate of their life and when their habits are being formed?I started looking for books to teach children under age six how to save. I couldn't find any that fit.And that is how "Larry the Bunny Saves his Money" was created.If you have little ones in your life who you love, this book is for them -- and you.
