This is not your typical brain book! And that's a good thing.
How To Be Brilliant - Brainpower For Kids makes helping your child develop intelligence simple, easy, fun, practical, and doable. That means you've got this, and so has your child.
Other books, and "experts" with letters after their names, would have you believe helping your child develop and use intelligence is best left to them. It's the brain your kid was born with for crying out loud. Using it shouldn't be complicated. And, it's not!
Be warned, though. If you're looking for groundbreaking research, secret methods, and the scientific ramblings of academic types, this is not the book for you.
If you're looking for ways that are practical, doable, that work, and have stood the test of time, clear some space on your bathroom bookshelf (or in your little reader thingy) and get ready to make it happen!

How To Be Brilliant - Brainpower For Kids is a plain-spoken, ever so slightly entertaining primer on how to help children develop and maintain their brilliance. These are the basics that apply mostly to the early years but are essential for any age. Much of the content flies right in the face of some of the bunk that you've been led to believe. That might be a little tough on your digestion, but it's what you need to hear.
Everything in this book is based on how your child's brain is designed to work. The brain in your child's head has everything needed for brilliance. All we need to do is show you how to naturally light it up.
This is brainpower made easy to understand and easy to put to work in your life and your child's life. It's even fun, and it's never an interruption to your day (or your kid's day).
Oh, and if you're looking for one of those boring textbook-like books that doubles as a sleep aid, this one isn't for you either. It's not going to win any humor awards, but it isn't going to bore you to tears either.
