Mansa's Little Reminders is a book long overdue that highlights the life of an inner-city kid with big dreams but no direction, a strong and loving family with few resources. Mansa's little Reminders introduces the fundamental strategies that can help bridge the financial literacy gap between the "haves" and the "have nots" in a way that is fun, relatable, and needed. Mansa's Little Reminders is the first of many fun-filled adventures of a young and curious boy named Mark and his wise furry companion, Mansa. Our journey begins on an unusually bright morning, with the sunshine piercing through Mark's window, blinding him into reality. As he prepared himself for the hot summer day, he noticed a squirrel perched outside of his window. Mark did not know that Mansa had been watching him for a long time. You see, Mansa knew that Mark had the potential to change the path of his life, and he was going to do everything he could to give him the tools and encouragement needed to do so. Will Mansa be successful at helping to change the trajectory of Mark's life?
