Inhaltsangabe

High on a hill lives a wise old owl named Adam who spends his days watching the island. When a young, curious lion named Javier climbs up to ask why some islands grow rich and others sink, Adam shows him the answers. He simply invites the cub to look.

Afternoon after afternoon, in the basket workshop, in the market nobody runs, at the price nobody sets, Javier discovers the great ideas Adam Smith gave the world:

• that wealth is not the silver locked in a chest, but what work produces;
• that no one hands us bread out of kindness, but out of exchange;
• and that a free market coordinates thousands of animals without anyone ruling them.

A warm, clear fable about work, trade, and freedom, so a child can understand where wealth really comes from.

Set in the world of No Silver on Rat Island.
