Economics with Uncle Tunde
Enter the exciting graphical world of Uncle Tunde and his lovely nephew and niece; Junior and Princess as they chart through all the economic terms that follow us in our daily lives. You might catch Junior or Princess making a snarky remark, and should trust Uncle Tunde to have a quick clapback. Purchase a copy for yourself, a friend, or your child.
Part of the amount you pay for each copy goes into the Uncle Tunde fund to ensure that people are provided with the necessary tools needed to rise up, create and manage wealth sustainably.
The Uncle Tunde Fund is dedicated to providing financial resources, to support initiatives involved in developing human capital in Nigeria and Africa future. This will include foundations and NGOs that support education, healthcare and any endeavour that boosts the human potential.
If the development of Africa’s human capital base is also a dream you are looking to actualize, you can join me by purchasing any of my products from which part of the proceeds goes into the fund, or you can donate directly to the fund as well.
Thank you as we look forward to changing the world with you.”

Book reviews
I asked my 9-year-old son to read the book, and I was delighted to see him understand and be able to explain various economic concepts like microeconomics, macroeconomics, inflation, monopoly, demand, and supply. I watched as he smiled while reading the book, which speaks to the book's engaging nature. He thought the book was "cool."

One of the book’s highlights is its practical approach to economic theories. Uncle Tunde doesn’t just throw around fancy terms; he makes them relatable. Whether it’s explaining how supply and demand affect prices or how inflation eats away at your pocket money, Uncle Tunde provides insights that you can immediately apply to your personal finance decisions. In Chapter 4, “Why Prices Rise,” Uncle Tunde demystifies inflation with humor and clarity.
