Description

Introducing The Hidden Entrance - Book #2 in the Under the Staircase Economic Adventure Series for Kids! 


Author will personally autograph and mail to winning bidder!! 


"After spending the summer discovering the Under the Staircase Society, Nate, Maya, and Maggie are finally back at school. But while Nate would be happy puttering in his workshop and tinkering with his 3D printer, he can’t stand by as their beloved Apprenticeship Program comes under attack. The discov


ery of The Road to Serfdom sparks a chain of events they could never have expected. From Cipher Wheels to Cicero, secret desks to hidden passages, the kids must solve the new mystery...before it’s too late!" 


Psst! Parents and Teachers: The second book in the series introduces a variety of Friedrich Hayek’s economic concepts—individualism and collectivism, the knowledge problem, the fatal conceit, and other topics—using examples from kids’ day-to-day lives in school, with friends, and in familiar situations. Explore Under the Staircase at underthestaircase.com.

This review is from: The Hidden Entrance (Under the Staircase - An Economic Adventure Series for Kids) (Volume 2) (Paperback)


The Secret Under the Staircase (Under the Staircase - An Economic Adventure Series for Kids) (Volume 1)
 is the first book in this series.



This book adds kid characters and bad guys, and features much discussion of the proper role of elected representatives. Who gets to limit choices? Free people deciding freely, or government?



Great incorporation of a cipher wheel and economic concepts -- can't wait for Book 3.



My 9-year-old loved book one, and he beat me to Book 2 by almost a whole week. This is a worthwhile series of books.
