Once upon a time, in a land far away, there lived a man called Mr. Trump who loved his special toy money, the US dollar. He heard that his friends from BRICS – a magical club with nine countries, including big dragons like China and brave bears like Russia – wanted to make their own toy money. Mr. Trump didn’t like this. He wanted everyone to play with his toy money, so he said, ‘If you make your own, I’ll make it very hard for you to buy toys from my shop.’ The BRICS friends talked a lot about using different toys and even making a new game, but they loved playing with Mr. Trump’s dollar toys too. They thought about making a special club money, but it was hard because everyone liked different toys. Mr. Trump’s dollar was still the favorite for buying oil ships and other big toys. But the BRICS gang was clever and thought about ways to play without always needing Mr. Trump’s toys. They even started sharing their toys in their own special way. The moral of the story is, sharing toys can be tricky, but it’s important to have lots of options for playtime.
