Here's a fascinating book that explores the inner workings of your ol' grey matter. In "Brain Twisters - The Science of Thinking and Feeling" by Clive Gifford and Professor Anil Seth, you'll find a whole host of amazing facts and fascinating insights into the brain.
Kids are willing and eager to soak up science if it is fun and engaging, and this book starts out by exploring how the brain, the senses and the nervous system link together to allow us to perceive and react to the world around us.
We really like a book that serves up fascinating facts with fantastic presentation and lots of practical ideas that children can try out themselves to further demonstrate their brain's awesome power.
Utterly mind-bending stuff!
Charlotte's favourite bit: Optical illusions and tricks our brains play on us!
