This book is suitable for children aged 8 to 12 years old. This book examines one of nature's most complex achievements: the brain. Top science author Michael DiSpezio creates illuminating and clever activities, like making a simple model of the brain, that help children understand exactly how their brain, nerves and senses work. He asks fun, child-friendly questions, such as: Why are some people lefties and others righties? What do a human brain and a low-watt lightbulb have in common? Entertaining and informative, this collection of tricks, experiments, puzzles and quizzes provides a cool road map to exploring the most excting part of the body.
