Perfect for young dreamers with big ideas

I got this audiobook for my friend’s daughter, who has a super cool business idea but wasn’t sure how to get started. She’s smart, creative, and driven, but like a lot of teens, she needed guidance that actually made sense for her age and experience.
This book was exactly what she needed. It speaks directly to young people in a way that’s empowering, practical, and totally doable. From planning and budgeting to social media and building confidence, it breaks everything down step by step, without ever talking down to the listener.

Simple but full of guideline

As a parent of a young adult child who wants to start a business and cannot give professional knowledge to their children, this book can be a good guide for both of them. All the steps and information are written in an easy-to-understand manner, and it is well organized with practice problems so that it can be of practical help to children who want to start a business early. It is a guide that helps build a bond between parents and children and gain indirect experience and knowledge while studying together. It is a book that is very helpful in creating a more solid foundation from the information you see in advance. I recommend this book to anyone in this situation.

inspiring and super practical

This is such a great guide for young people who are curious about starting a business but don’t know where to begin. It’s clear, motivating, and full of tips that make the whole process feel doable—even if you’re still in school. Perfect for turning big ideas into real action.

A must-have launchpad for every young dreamer

The Young Entrepreneur is exactly the kind of book I wish I had growing up—and the kind every ambitious teen or tween needs today. This isn't just a guide; it’s a toolkit, a confidence boost, and a pep talk all rolled into one. Whether your child is crafting bracelets, designing a digital service, or brainstorming the next big app, this audiobook provides the blueprint to turn big dreams into real businesses.
The content is approachable, smartly structured, and full of practical wisdom. From building a brand story to choosing the right social media platforms, it gives step-by-step strategies without overwhelming the listener. I especially appreciated the focus on mindset—like how to face fear, embrace failure as a learning step, and build self-confidence. These lessons are invaluable not just in business, but in life.
It’s also very inclusive—ideal for young people of all backgrounds, whether they're launching a side hustle or simply exploring the idea of entrepreneurship. And the interactive exercises are genius. They help kids think like entrepreneurs while keeping things fun and hands-on.
I loved how the book encouraged guidance without taking over the process. It's about empowering kids to lead their own journey—with just the right level of support. Highly recommended for young go-getters, homeschoolers, educators, or parents wanting to nurture real-world skills in their kids. This is more than just a business guide—it’s a head start on a life of purpose, passion, and independence.
