Overview

Ever wondered why some star candies cost more than others? Or daydreamed of faraway planets where everything's free? Or puzzled over why you never have enough space coins to buy that shiny new asteroid blaster? Strap into your rocket ship and get ready, because that's where our intergalactic heroes come in. Drum roll, please... Join the Star Smile Squad! We're a friendly family of aliens from London, UK, ready to blast off on a cosmic journey through the world of economics. Daddy Alien has twenty years as a government economist under his space belt. He's provided expert advice on some of the UK's biggest public sector projects. When he talks in this book, you're listening to someone who knows his supply from his demand, just as well as he knows a Quasar from a Black Hole! Over at HM Treasury, he led the learning and development for the UK Government Economist Service (or as we like to call it, GES). What's his special trick? Taking big, clever economics topics and making them interesting and easy to understand. Also at the Treasury, Daddy Alien was the brains behind the exams for the bright future stars in the GES Fast Stream talent program. He made sure they were ready to shine before deciding whether the government should give them a job or not. At the UK Cabinet Office, he had a super cool mission too: making economics fun and easy for everyone with awesome coaching sessions. But wait, there's more! Mummy Alien is the steady hand (or should we say tentacle?) guiding the ship. She's the one making sure that Daddy Alien's wild ideas don't float away into space. Next we have Sister Alien, the Education Psychologist. Zipping from school to school in Yorkshire with her speedy moon mobile, she ensures every lesson sparkles like a supernova. With her clever tips, this book becomes super easy for young aliens to grasp. Think of it as a space adventure with knowledge on the side! Last but not least, our two little alien daughters add their own special touch of magic. Their crazy ideas bring this book to life, turning economics into a fun and colourful subject. Together, we are the Star Smile Squad. Engines ready? 3... 2... 1... Lift-off!
