What This Episode Is About
Connor Boyack is the President of the Libertas Institute and The Association for Teaching Kids Economics. While those credentials alone are incredibly impressive, we’re not going to be talking about either one of those organizations today.
In this episode, we’re talking with Connor about his widely successful series of children’s book that are aimed at teaching children about complicated economic principles and topics.
We personally use Connor’s books to educate our own young children and can’t recommend them highly enough. In fact, we love them so much, we’re giving some away!
