Got this for my 11 year old. Only takes about 30 mins to read and he totally `got it'. As a result he started a leaf raking service (ideal for Autumn). And as winter approaches he is getting some snow clearing leaflets ready so distribute once the snow arrives.

Strongly recommend this book as a basic introduction on both the principles and practices of how to make money.

My 12 and 14 year old daughters loved this book. My 14 year old said and I quote in teenager speak, 'It was well good! I didn't really understand leverage when you explained it Mum but Alfie's story is so simple I just got it right away without having to think too much!'

Kids, teenagers and adults alike will benefit from reading Alfie's stories and will gain an instant understanding of entrepreneurship in a fun and easy to share manner. Highly recommended for all the family!

What a great book for your kids to read. My 16 year old daughter has come up with some brilliant ideas for raising funds for her upcoming trip to Borneo later this year that she has to pay for herself through her own fundraising efforts. The information in this book alone is worth a fortune if your child learns from it and puts it into action. It really is the sort of stuff that should be taught in school but sadly isn't. Even my 12 year old Triplets are reading it and are coming up with some great ideas of their own.

Mark Hibbitts has struck gold with this and we can't wait for the future 'Alfie Potts' books to be released. !!!

As soon as I received this book in the mail I was not able to put it down until I completed reading the book. I learned very much from reading it. It's not only great for children, but I encourage every adult to read it as well.
