Rich Dad' s Rich Kid Smart Kid is written for parents who value education, want to give their child a financial and academic headstart in life, and are willing to take an active role to make it happen.

In the Information Age, a good education is more important than ever. But the current educational system may not be providing all the information your child needs. This book was designed to fill in the gaps: to help you give your child the same inspiring and practical financial knowledge that Robert Kiyosaki's rich dad gave him. Rich Kid Smart Kid will show you how to awaken your child's love or learning using the same methods that Robert's smart dad used to help Robert stay in schoool, even though he had bad grades and often wanted to drop out. And Rich Kid Smart Kid will open doors that you never knew existed, enabling you to pass down the skills and understanding your child will use for the rest of his or her life.

Among some of the book's topics are:

• Is school preparing your child for the real world?
• Is school teaching your child how to financially survive and thrive in today's - and tomorrow's - world?
• What you can do if ... your child does not like school ... brings home bad grades ... is labelled learning disabled ... wants to drop out of school
• How you can be sure your child gets the real-world guidance he or she needs.
