WHAT: Author Andrea de Fraga presents the “Piggy Bank Book” Kickstarter Pre-Book Launch Event at Chicago’s Arbor Restaurant
WHY: Join Andrea for an exclusive VIP family-friendly event to preview her ‘Piggy Bank Book” and receive copies before the book is available to the public. Andrea, a Business Management professor at Chicago’s Columbia College, wrote the “Piggy Bank Book” to help children ages 6 to 11 and their families learn the valuable life skills of saving money for future goals and responsible spending.
In the book, family members and children can work on real life activities such as “The Cost of Going Out to Eat” and “The $10 Challenge” bringing home the message of how everyday things can really add up. Young readers will also learn how to open a savings account and to write down what they are saving for as well what gifts they would like to give.
In addition to the book, attendees will receive lunch. For more information about the event, visit this link: bit.ly/PiggyBankBook
