Writes for small readers
Picture books that put three money habits — giving, saving and spending — inside a story a three-year-old can follow.
Children’s author and business coach. Mark wrote Big Buck Gives, Saves, and Spends and Little Penny Gives, Saves, and Spends — two picture books that turn three money habits into something a small child can picture and practise.
Alongside the books, he coaches business owners on strategic planning, growth and profitability. The same idea runs through both: good habits, started early and repeated, compound.

Picture books that put three money habits — giving, saving and spending — inside a story a three-year-old can follow.
Not budgets or percentages — the small, repeatable choices that turn into lifelong financial habits.
Strategic planning, growth and profitability — the grown-up end of the same habit of deciding on purpose.
Buck has his eye on a dump truck, and not quite enough to buy it. Watching the saving pile grow is where patience turns from a word into something he can see.
Penny’s wish is a different one, and so is her way of getting there — but the three jars are the same. Read both and children find the pattern themselves.
Mark’s books are the starting point for the My Money City TadaKit — three jars to cut out and fill, a weekly savings tracker, and the activities that turn the story into a habit at home. Free to print.
Open the TadaKitA reading and a give-save-spend session for young readers — or, for business owners, a conversation about strategic planning, growth and profitability. Tell us a little about your group and we’ll come back with options.
