this book talks about how the brain works and grows, and also talks about the importance of growth mindset! I thought that this was a positive read that could help to inspire and motivate students with their learning

This book teaches kids about their brains in a way they can understand. It's perfect for primary and early middle school students. It shows how our brains work and grow, and it's great for teaching a growth mindset.

The illustrative book gives facts about the brain in an appropriate manner for primary and intermediate students. It talks about different parts of the brain such as the cerebellum and hippocampus. It talks about what brains are capable of doing and what they help us do. The illustrations make reading this book so fun. I would love to use this in an intermediate classroom when we are learning about the body such as bones. I think this book does a great job at expanding thinking and introducing advanced ideas/topics.

- I would use with any age group!
- This is a very interesting book because it is a picture book but it also shows how the brain works with pretty finite detail! Love it!
