Evy Loe, What Do You Know? by Professor Stork – Book Review

Book Review I know they say don't judge a book by its cover, but Evy Loe, What Do You Know by Professor Stork has one lovable and engaging cover! It's just as fun as the book itself, but you'll have to pick the book up yourself to find that out. Evy Loe and her Dad… Continue reading Evy Loe, What Do You Know? by Professor Stork – Book Review

Once upon a time in a distant land… Briar taught financial literacy. I've done so many things in my career and life, it's sometimes bonkers to think I'm not an eighty-year-old lady (my knees agree with me being eighty and sometimes my back, but alas… I am not). Financial Literacy is super important and it… Continue reading Mansa’s Little Reminders: Scratching the Surface of Financial Literacy by A.D. Williams and Kendal Fordham – Book Review

So, welcome to my adulthood journey into nostalgia and my goal… Continue reading #BookReview Albert Einstein by Inspired Inner Genius
