Cracker, the two books in my possession are Neale S. Godfrey's "Ultimate Kids' Money Book," which they have all read, and then they will hit Adriane G. Berg's "The Totally Awesome Money Book For Kids." These are largely reinforcement/reading skill enhancement opportunities as I actually created a game a while back to teach them the fun of building up. I feel these books are a bit high in reading level for an 8 year old but they seem fine for 10+.
