Pass Go and Collect $200: The Real Story of How Monopoly Was Invented
The history behind Monopoly has more twists than you might expect. This picture book introduces readers to Lizzie Magie, Charles Darrow, and the long path from The Landlord’s Game to one of the world’s best-known board games.
It’s an especially good fit for today’s adventure because the story blends invention, economics, history, and math. Even the back matter keeps the numbers going with a collection of “Monopoly Math” problems.
