Description

Two bulldog siblings. One spends it all. One saves for tomorrow.

What happens when a young bulldog spends all his money on fancy things and forgets to save for a rainy day?

Battery and his sister Brenda each receive a magic money tree from Mama Bulldog. Brenda is sensible: she waters her tree, spends the money carefully, and saves for the future. But Battery? He buys a fancy house, a fancy car, and throws the fanciest parties in all of Bulldog Land!

When his worried sister reminds him to save, Battery just laughs. After all, with a magic money tree, the money will never run out...right?

Then one terrible day, a storm washes Battery's money tree away. Without any savings, he loses everything. The worst thing a bulldog can do is run out of money! Luckily, Battery has someone he can count on: his smart, sensible sister who saved for precisely this kind of situation.

Through charming bulldog siblings and money lessons kids can relate to, Battery the Bulldog and the Funny Money Tree proves that living a "regular" life with sensible habits is the real treasure.

Critical Reviews

"A rare children's book that gets both the heart and the behavior of money right. Through a simple story about a magical money tree and what happens when a storm finally comes, Battery the Bulldog and the Funny Money Tree teaches timeless lessons about spending, saving, and patience. Perfect for families who want to raise kids who understand that real wealth is built, not wished for."

- Dr. Daniel Crosby, NYT bestselling author of The Soul of Wealth

"Battery the Bulldog and the Funny Money Tree makes conversations about money feel approachable, playful, and meaningful for children. Through charming characters and clear storytelling, Charlotte and Andrew turn an often confusing topic into something kids can begin to understand. As someone who has spent years working closely with children and families, I love how this book opens the door to honest conversations about saving, spending, and values. This is a wonderful read for parents, caregivers, and teachers looking to build healthy money habits early."

- Susan Russell, early childhood education teacher

"This book is special because it effectively makes complex financial concepts simple and accessible for children. In a world of instant gratification and digital spending, poor money management can stem from lack of guidance. Money is a tool that requires care, planning, and balance. This book starts a conversation early that normalizes these helpful practices!"

- Barbara Ginty, CFP, CEPA, financial advisor and host of the Future Rich Podcast
