Felix Unlimited

LoveReading4Kids Says

What a beaut of a book! Felix is an absolute joy of a character - determined, entrepreneurial, entertaining - and this story of kindness and following your dreams is a cheering, charming delight.

A forgotten birthday sparks Felix’s burgeoning card-making business and it’s not long before he has requests for cards coming out of his ears, and a whopping stash of cash beneath his bed. Convinced he can turn this into something more (“After all, when people kept coming up to you and giving you money...It was a no-brainer, really”), Felix shares his news with best friend Mo (creator of the original card) and sets his sights on bigger things.

But, as most business entrepreneurs know, success comes at a price, and in Felix’s case that turns out to be a pickle involving the stresses of expanding too fast, having too many orders to fulfil, unreliable equipment, and finance management. So, Felix’s wealthy Uncle Rufus is called upon as a business consultant, but his involvement only adds to the complications…

Brilliant for budding businesspeople, or anyone who’s ever had A Great Idea, this book is a shot of sunny self-belief, with a side dose of drama.
