Lisa Mulka is Recipient of Children's Book of the Year Award

Picture
Founder of Juniper Shore Publications, Lisa Mulka, is the recipient of the Children's book of the Year Award from the Institute for Financial Literacy for her children's book The Business of Beans: A Young Entrepreneur's Story in Tanzania.

The book focuses on a young boy, Juma, living in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro as he starts and grows a new business.  

"I wanted to create a lyrical story that inspired children to think broadly about their world through culture, personal finance, and language. This book captures the five guideposts for financial literacy (earn, save, spend, invest, give) while delivering content in an entertaining and educational way."

The book includes an introduction to Swahili, is aligned to national financial literacy standards, and makes a perfect addition to any elementary classroom looking to connect personal finance to social studies and geography..
