Globalisation: The Ant and the Dove - Winners and Losers

Part of the bestselling Economics for Kids series

Step into the interconnected world of trade, teamwork, and transformation with Globalisation: The Ant and the Dove - Winners and Losers. This insightful children's book brings one of Aesop's most beloved fables to life in a modern, economic context-introducing kids to the powerful forces of globalization, cooperation, and fairness.

Using the timeless tale of The Ant and the Dove, this book makes the complex topic of globalization both accessible and engaging for young minds. Children learn how countries, like individuals, rely on each other to grow, trade, and thrive-while also understanding that not everyone benefits equally in a global economy.

Key Lessons Kids Will Learn: Globalization - Winners and Losers

Children discover how global trade connects countries, encourages growth, and creates opportunity-while also exploring the challenges of inequality, sustainability, and ensuring no one is left behind.

The Global Village

By watching how the Ant and the Dove support one another, readers learn how countries can specialize in their strengths, driving economic growth, innovation, and shared prosperity through collaboration.

Cooperation and Fairness

At its heart, the story emphasizes why fairness and mutual support are key to building a more just and balanced global economy. Cooperation, it shows, is not just kind-it's powerful.

Educational Purpose: Written for children ages 6-12, this book is part of the acclaimed Economics for Kids series, which makes complex economic topics fun and understandable through fables, relatable characters, and thoughtful storytelling.

Globalisation: The Ant and the Dove - Winners and Losers offers:
