Business for Beginners

子供がとても喜びました❗

Good book

内容は素晴らしい。本国では8-11歳向けである。日本の同年代が内容を理解できるとは思えない。ドラえもんの社会漫画、学研の学習漫画などを読んでいたとしてもなおかなりの飛躍があるだろう。辛口選挙特番でお馴染みの元アナウンサーの方の本がもしかしたらマイルストーンになるかもしれない。Politics〜が神話や冒険小説や伝記から距離を詰めていけるのに対してこのBusiness〜は日本の子供が近づくにはなかなか難しい本である。 大学生におすすめ、大人もいつもと違う視点で物を見れて楽しい。 以下簡単に扱われているテーマを紹介する。 立案、事業計画書の書き方、資金集め（助成金・クラウドファンディング・節約・銀行融資・投資家からの資金提供）、法令遵守、誇大広告、納税、会計、脱税、破産、輸出と関税、労働者の権利、環境への責任、金融危機、公定歩合etc。 この本によるとrecessionの定義はa period when businesses sell less, lots of people are out of work and the country as a whole is poorer.とある。 「不況」と辞書で引くより意味を取りやすい。子供が使うには、読解演習や新聞記事で分からない内容が出てきたときに、本の後ろの索引を使ってページをめくって概念の知るのに役立てる、といった使い方が良いかもしれない。 ポップコーンを売ったり、キャッチコピーを考えたり楽しく読める内容もあり、Politics〜と同様に色が綺麗でイラストやフォントが親しみやすいので、百科事典や図鑑を見るように拾い読みするのもおすすめ。英検準一級とは多少方向性にズレがある。が、一般教養の本として優れているのは間違いない。

I bought "Business for Beginners" for my six-year-old daughter, and it has truly sparked her interest in the world of entrepreneurship! The book presents complex concepts in a fun and engaging way, with colorful illustrations and relatable examples that make learning about business exciting. What I love most is how it encourages creativity and critical thinking. My daughter enjoys the interactive activities that allow her to think like a young entrepreneur. She often shares her ideas for imaginary businesses, which has led to some wonderful conversations between us.

Easy for understanding business concepts for beginner

Really appreciate these books for guided reading. We have the version about Money as well. They are great source of little debates. The books provides my children with some awareness of-, and affinity with my day to day activities. And frankly, it would be good the make children somewhat financially and economically aware. As currently there is very little to none attention for in the school curriculum. This colourful, well-presented hard cover book takes children through what businesses are as entities. But it then quickly become very practical explaining about business plans, the gap in the market, identification of competitive advantages (which is vital if you ask me), pricing strategies, scale and marketing. It’s very diverse, covering a range of different aspects of running a business, including management styles and client servicing. It is actually very complete. All is presented in such a manner that children can understand. And it reads very well. My daughter actually liked to go through it with me. Ideally you want your children to take note, finish the book and rush off to start their own successful digital commercial venture (& take care of their parents financially!!). But they can’t be pushed. And should not be pushed. In all seriousness, this book is already great as a reference to put things in context. The book even addresses business failures and will give your child instructions on how to IPO their company.

Este libro pertenece a una serie que trata temas básicos de la vida, y que no enseñan en los colegios. Son una ayuda muy buena para educar en temas como economía, política y en este caso negocios. Las explicaciones son breves y con ejemplos que pueden entender, con muchas imágenes y gráficos. Vale mucho la pena. José Argudo - autor del libro "Storytelling para textos de venta"

Great into into the topic for our 7 year old
