You need to save money, even if it’s just a little. You need to be brave and not give up even in the most difficult situations. This is what Evgeniy Sivkov’s fairy tale “The Brave Penny” is about. The fairy tale “The Brave Penny” tells children not just the story of the journey of coins from mother’s wallets to store cash registers and conductors’ large bags. The plot of the money cycle is based on the story of a small and brave penny, personifying the child himself with all his spontaneity, sincerity and good nature. “The Brave Penny” is the main character of the fairy tale in every sense of the word. Thanks to her resourcefulness and self-sacrifice, comrades who are older in age and denomination have the opportunity to return to life again and shine with new brilliance. Until recently, Evgeny Sivkov was known as the author of business novels. The first three parts of his financial trilogy – “Auditor”, “Consultant”, “Advisor” - have already been published. The author of serious business publications decided to try himself in the most difficult genre - children's fairy tales. Raising a sense of responsibility and patriotism in children is an important task.
