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

Thanks. Those are the first two books that came to mind. I still like Sowell’s work though. I actually have The Federalist Papers and some other stuff by Hamilton. I’m no economist and have just read books on it but it amazes me how people with degrees in economics push thinks like a super high minimum wage or “living wage” with no basis in reality.
