Darius wants a dog, but he doesn't know if he wants the responsibility. When Darius asks his dads for a dog, they let Darius babysit his aunt's dog first. While it's so much fun to play with the dog, Darius must learn about how to budget for things like food and toys, how to make time for a pet, and that owning a dog isn't all fun all the time.
It's never too early to start learning about personal empowerment! In this first installment of The Financially Fit Kidz series, Darius teaches young readers about budgeting, leadership, and that it's okay to change your mind. Parents will also find a fun and easy-to-use tip sheet in the back of the book that will help them start conversations with their kids about financial responsibility.
