MY FIRST...

A financial literacy mystery series for ages 10 to 13

Ten-year-old Emma keeps finding money mysteries she didn't ask for. A birthday present that's really a digital wallet. Dollars that vanish for no reason. A subscription nobody remembers signing up for. Each book hands readers every clue Emma gets, on the same page she gets it, so they can try to beat her to the answer.

Written by a financial-regulation professional who has also helped bring financial literacy programs into schools, the series moves from digital wallets and bank accounts through budgets, paychecks, credit, and investing. Every book stands alone. Every ending leaves Emma, and the reader, with a new question.
