In the third and nal volume of the series, the boy - the protagonist
of the story - makes an important discovery about values like work,
leisure and people’s relationship with money. One day, when his
mother tells him the classic fable of the Ant and the Grasshopper, the
boy who was very perceptive starts to ponder... He sees his dad, who
is a hard working railroad engineer, as the Ant. Then he thinks of his
mom as the Grasshopper, as he sees her singing tunes the whole day
at home.
Through an engaging, fantasy- lled story, The Boy, the Money and the
Anthopper makes children ponder on the importance of the balance
that exists in each element, so that the world can ow in a natural motion,
alternating cycles and bringing prosperity, joy and the ful lment of
individual and collective dreams, both tangible and intangible.
