What would be a good book for a middle school aged boy or girl to dive into economics?

I was thinking Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith or Basic Economics by Thomas Sowell but those may be a bit advanced

Whatever Happened to Penny Candy? Inflation and MMT with zero jargon.

Freakanomics. About unintended consequences and incentives.

The latter for an advanced kid. The former is written for middle schoolers and hits everything easily and simply.

It's also literally the only economics book I've read that defined inflation correctly.
