This book was inspired by a curious boy’s endless questions about the world and my passion for making complex ideas enjoyable for children.
As a mother, economist, author, and educator, I believe learning should be an adventure filled with fun, curiosity, and discovery.
Stories. Skills. Legacy. From the heart, for the world.
