“Bouani brilliantly takes a potentially dry subject as entrepreneurship and communicates its basic principles in a fun and entertaining way. As the founder of the Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship and one of the leading experts on youth entrepreneurship education, I know how complicated this subject can be for children. Unlike many financial or business books written for children, this one approaches kids at their level with an engaging story and plenty of mystery & suspense. She actually gets kids excited about becoming entrepreneurs themselves, and that's an amazing accomplishment. In addition, it is a wonderful introduction to free-market capitalism. It should be a part of American school curricula and every family's library, because it sets the basic foundation that every kid needs to build a successful future." Steve Mariotti, Founder of the Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE).

An important goal in our kids’ education should be to infuse early on entrepreneurial skills, such as opportunity-recognition and risk-taking. This book contributes to this goal. The story takes the young reader on an adventure—much like that of a real-life entrepreneur—learning lessons in an interactive and engaging way. As Tyler works to develop his idea into a business, each problem he faces is cleverly put into a riddle, giving both Tyler and the reader an opportunity to develop creative-thinking and problem-solving skills. These are vital skills for young people to have, whether or not they end up becoming entrepreneurs. At the same time, tangible business lessons are learned, such as how to find capital, how to negotiate wages, and when to trust a business partner. In the future, more than any time in history, in their passion to do good and do well, young people will get involved at some point in their career in a start-up. The intellectual lessons in this book will help a new generation of entrepreneurs, so that they may be inspired to unleash their ideas and make a difference in their world." Jonathan Ortmans | Senior Fellow, Kauffman Foundation. "As an organization that focuses on teaching young people about entrepreneurship, parents frequently ask us for additional resources they can use at home. Tyler & His Solve-a-Matic Machine is an easy, fun way for parents to spark and foster children’s entrepreneurial spirit. Children relate to the engaging characters and understand that they too can make their dreams into reality." Jack Harris | President, Junior Achievement of Georgia. "Entrepreneurship is the backbone of our economy, yet entrepreneurship is not a subject kids are actively taught. That is what makes Bouani's series so important. She is teaching kids about an important concept and delivers valuable lessons in a fun and engaging way. The Future Business Leaders' Series prepares kids for the changing economy and gets them excited about entrepreneurship." Natalie MacNeil | Founder of SheTakesOnTheWorld.com and Co-founder of GarageEntrepreneurs.com. "Tyler and His Solve-a-matic Machine" is an enjoyable adventure study that aims to introduce children to some of the basic concepts of capitalism. The book is well-written and deserves a wide audience." David Gordon | Fellow, Van Mises Institute. "I love the concept of this book--that it plants an entrepreneurial seed in kids' minds, and shows them they have the power to solve their own problems. As a child, I was constantly told I could do anything and be anything. If I had read this book back then, I can only imagine the ideas it would have sparked. For kids that don't have that kind of support, this book could be the first place they hear they don't have to accept the status quo, and that their ideas have value. Kudos to Jennifer Bouani for writing such an important book!" Shelly Roche. # # #
