My Daddy is a Trader
Three screens, a lot of quiet, and a job nobody in the family can explain.
This book gives her the idea underneath it: that some things grow slowly, that waiting is the clever part, and that good days and bad days both happen.
When she asks her daddy what a trader does, he does not talk about markets. He gives Teddy ten shiny buttons — plant one today, and in a year there might be two. Then the green lines and the red lines that wiggle up and down like little hills, and why you must not panic on the down days. A warm, calm read-aloud about patience and looking after what other people have trusted you with, paced for bedtime.
