If Money Could Shout (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781936872060)

A powerful graphic novel to engage teens in stories about young people and the financial cause-and-effects of their choices. Over 400 original illustrations provide a visual showcase for eight talented artists from across America. This groundbreaking approach to teaching financial literacy recognizes the challenge - but importance - of reaching teens on their terms. Edgy, thought-provoking, while providing practical insights about money in a fictional story backed by incredible graphics. Visually stunning, highly engaging with deep messaging for young people who will appreciate an alternative to a "text book" on the topic of personal finance and life success.

This is the seventh financial literacy book written by Financial Strategist Paul Nourigat. "If Money Could Shout" follows his literary style using fictional stories emphasizing a financial theme or discipline, against an engaging visual backdrop. This book supports emerging national and state learning standards for financial literacy and social sciences, including "life skills" and "reasoning skills" for middle and high schoolers. Key concepts woven throughout the stories include Budgeting, Spending, Saving, Giving, Philanthropy, Choices, Collaboration, Community, Compassion, Empathy, Creativity, Earning, Effort, Family, Media influence, Patience, Peer-pressure, Planning, Price/value, Privacy, Profit, Security, Risk, Global Economy, and getting a Job. Messages to last a lifetime.
