Product Description

Product Description

Alfie Potts™ is a twelve year old schoolboy who, with the help and guidance of his father, becomes an entrepreneur. Over the course of the stories Alfie gets to learn some 'life lessons' that don't get taught in school. In 'The Schoolboy Entrepreneur' Alfie learns the power of 'ideas' and 'problem solving'. After starting his first business venture and earning his first wage Alfie soon realises that trading time for money can have its drawbacks. During a lesson from Dad, Alfie learns the power of 'leverage' and soon achieves his goal while helping his friends to achieve theirs!

Format:Paperback
I highly recommend that anyone with children take a look at Alfie Potts. (I wish this book had been available when I was a kid - yes quite some time ago!) A great book to read with children young and old alike. Parents and children have lots to take on board with this story. It is refreshing to find an author who knows how kids minds work and tells the story accordingly. What is essentially a book about a young boy who makes the most of the school holidays....it shows the way so that children who start young can do anything they want BUT have to work at it to get results. I feel this book would be a great addition to any school library. I understand there will be more Alfie Potts books this year and I can't wait to read the next instalment.

Truly Inspirational 12 Mar 2011
Format:Paperback
I loved everything about this book- the way it is written and illustrated and of course the very valuable message that it gives to children, and it is great that Alfie has his Dad as his Role Model to guide him on his way!
A must for all children- cant wait for the next books in the series
