The First Drawer
When Pip earns ten coins, the very first one flies in here — before he so much as smells a snack.
No. 01The story world
Bedtime stories that build money sense.
In a small shop that is never twice the same size stands one impossible piece of furniture: the Cabinet of Coins. Auntie Juniper keeps it, Pip the magpie raids it, and every drawer holds a tale your kids will ask for by name.
Each fable takes a minute or two at bedtime — narrated, with captions, in ten languages — and each one plants a money habit that sticks.
No. 02Auntie Juniper's fables
Twenty-one fables from the Cabinet.
Pay yourself first, guard against whispers, plant what you understand, give with an open hand — every timeless money habit, told as a story instead of a lecture.
Feeders and Eaters
Everything you can buy is secretly one of two creatures. Pip learns to tell them apart.
The Coin That Worked All Night
Coins don't need sleep. Tucked into the Growing Drawer, one works all night long.
The Owner's Ladder
Pip starts as a helper at Marla's berry stand — and notices who really goes home with more.
The Whisper Drawer
Anything that arrives whispering goes behind the brass lock — and waits for daylight.
Storm Days
The plain drawer near the floor is the grandest one in the cabinet: it's for the day the roof leaks.
The Garden Drawer
In this drawer, coins are seeds — but never plant one in a venture you can't explain to Pip.
The Open Hand
The one drawer with no lock at all — and the one that makes all the others worth having.
Name Your Wagon
“Someday” is the one day that never comes. A wish needs a thing, a count, and a day.
The Try-Again Bird
Pip's first stand fell over. A goat ate the second. The fourth one sings.
The Round Table
Nobody fills a cabinet alone. Meet the friends who tell Pip the truth.
The Winter Larder
Pip's cousin Jix spends every coin the hour he earns it. Then comes winter.
Never Sell the Goose
A trader offers Marla ten whole coins — not for her berries, for the bush itself.
The Penny Ship
“Beware of little expenses — a small leak will sink a great ship.” Pip doesn't believe it.
The Second Sweet
One honey drop now — or two if you can wait. It's harder than it sounds.
The Two Seeds
One coin, two wants: the puppet show tonight, or the seed packet that becomes a garden.
The Borrowed Umbrella
Everyone gets Corvus wrong. He isn't wicked. He's exact — and he charges for rain.
The Craftsman's Coin
The finest Feeder in the whole shop is waiting in the mirror: the one who earns can learn to earn more.
The Quiet Fox
Two neighbors — guess which one is rich. It isn't the goose in the velvet waistcoat.
The Milkmaid's Basket
Pip bursts in one morning already rich — from coins he hasn't earned yet. Count them when they land.
The Price Hill
In Fen's old ledger a honey drop cost half a coin. Today it's two. Same honey. Why?
No. 03For teens
Old Fen's Workshop.
When your kid outgrows fables, Fen is waiting — a retired ship's purser with a brass abacus and no patience for nonsense. Twelve episodes walk teens from their first paycheck to their first planting, in a register that respects their age.
“A budget isn't a cage. It's a map of where your coins already go — most birds just refuse to look at the map.”
The First Paycheck
Your first pay slip is a magic trick — and the magic is subtraction.
The Credit Ledger
In every port there's a book with your name in it — and you write in it whether you know it or not.
The Car That Eats
Price the animal, not the saddle: what the cart really costs after you buy it.
The Subscription Leak
Drips don't stay lonely. Hunt the leaks in your pouch, candle in hand.
The Snowball
Interest is a snowball — and the mountain doesn't care which direction you roll it.
The Emergency Number
Storms don't book appointments. Every ship carries more biscuit than the voyage needs.
The Umbrella Pool
Insurance isn't a thing you buy. It's a pool you join.
The First Planting
Storm stack filled, spare coins itching — the Garden Drawer, teen rules.
The Weasel's Semester
The Weasel's grown up too. Now he slides into your messages.
Asking Day
Sparrow's law: asking is free; not asking costs.
The Side Ladder
Wages are rungs on somebody else's ladder. Build one small rung of your own.
The Long Voyage
The biggest purchase of your young life is your training. Grand voyages are worth it — mostly.
Every story comes with a drawer to open.
Fables lead into activities, activities into habits. One family plan, up to 6 kids, ten languages.
