Ten Dollar Adventure: An interactive story about creative problem-solving, money management and entrepreneurship

Spark your child's entrepreneurial spirit with Ten Dollar Adventure, an exciting interactive story where their choices lead the way!

This isn't just a story to read. It's an adventure to shape. Join Daphne on a fun, week-long challenge: Turn $10 into a successful mini-venture with interesting and unexpected twists. Will your child guide Daphne to:

  • Muster up the confidence to ask kids if they like her idea, or trust her gut and build it anyway?
  • Save her earnings wisely or spend on tempting treats?
  • Discover the power of helping others and earn fun achievement stickers like "Helping Hand" and "Marketing Wizard"?

More than just fun, Ten Dollar Adventure playfully introduces essential life skills. As children navigate Daphne's journey, they'll naturally explore:

  • Earning, Spending, & Saving: Making real-world money decisions aided by exchanging Ten Dollar Adventure play money found right in the book!
  • Creative Problem-Solving: Overcoming challenges with smart ideas.
  • Early Entrepreneurship: Thinking about what makes a good product, how to set a price, where to sell, and even simple ways to promote!

With many distinct storylines, every read-through is a fresh experience, packed with opportunities to practice critical thinking and see firsthand how choices lead to different outcomes. Will Daphne successfully return the $10, or will the lessons learned be the greatest treasure?

Author's Note: The foundations of Ten Dollar Adventure-the concept, story, characters, and educational framework-are the original work of the (very human) author. The illustrations of the characters and scenes in the book were created with a generative AI tool. The author defined the characters, scenes, and artistic style for each illustration. From many generated options, the most suitable images were personally curated, and in many cases, edited and refined to match the author's vision for the book. The achievement stickers and play money were developed by the author.
