TOBY GOLD AND THE SECRET FORTUNE by CRAIG EVERETT
"Moneyis the most dangerous magic."
"Uniquechildren’s lit that cleverly tackles interest rates, endowments, fluctuatingcommodities, bullying and identity."
- KirkusReviews
An infant is discoveredone night on a commuter train from New York City during a stop in the sleepytown of Wallingford, Connecticut. Thelocal police are summoned, but are unable to locate the boy’s parents, despite painstakinglyquestioning each person on the train. For some strange reason, none of the passengers can remember seeing hismother falling from the train – after falling victim to an assassin’s bullet.
Assigned the name “TobyGold” by social services, the mysterious child grows up in Wallingford, movingfrom foster home to foster home, not knowing who his real parents are - or whyhe was born with such freakish skills with math and money.
Now a teenager, Toby’s money skills are noticed bythe wrong people, and thus he is unwittingly sucked into a high-stakesfinancial conspiracy that puts his life, and the lives of his two closestfriends, in great peril. Ultimately,Toby solves the crime, saves his friends, and even saves his school—all in oneharrowing afternoon.
"Thisfast-paced adventure weaves fundamental concepts in economics and financeseamlessly into the story. Toby Gold makes learning finance exciting."
-Francis A. Longstaff, PhD, Professor of Finance, UCLA - Anderson School ofManagement
