GoldQuest

By Stephanie Lennon

Trapped in a video game. Running out of points. Can they manage their money to survive?

Buck and Penny are typical kids. They think money grows on trees (or at least, in Mom's purse), they want everything now, and the word "budget" makes them roll their eyes.

But when a glitch sucks them inside their favorite video game, GoldQuest, the rules change. Suddenly, their "points" aren't just a score-they are the only way to eat, find shelter, and survive in a town filled with tempting arcades, tricky sales clerks, and a mysterious tax collector named Uncle Sammy.

To find the exit, they must master the one skill they ignored back home: Financial Literacy.

GoldQuest is the adventure novel that turns "money talks" into a thrilling journey. Written for children ages 8-14, this story introduces critical financial concepts without the lecture: Scarcity: Why you can't buy everything you want.Earning vs. Spending: The satisfaction of the "side hustle."Marketing Tricks: How to spot when someone is trying to separate you from your cash.Taxes: Meeting "Uncle Sammy" and understanding where the money goes.For Parents:
Stop lecturing and start adventuring. While The Family Bank Blueprint (sold separately) teaches you the system, GoldQuest gets your kids on board. It is the perfect bedtime read-aloud or independent chapter book to spark dinner table conversations about money, value, and responsibility.
