From the winners of the Royal Society Young Peoples Book Prize 2014, Clive Gifford and Professor Anil Seth, this is a wonderful and thorough exploration of the most complex and interesting organ of the body. The Human Brain in 30 Seconds is the ideal introduction for budding biologists to the brilliant brain. Each topic is presented in a neat 30-second soundbite, supported by a 3-second flash summary and full-page, colourful illustration. Fun, active missions support the topics and encourage kids to find out more. With stunning artwork, the attention-grabbing format is engaging and immediate, introducing readers aged from 8 up to this fascinating part of their bodies.

Praise for The Human Brain in 30 Seconds: 30 amazing topics for brilliant brains explained in half a minute (Kids 30 Second)

Full-page illustrations are found on every two-page spread, and the text is factual and presented in short paragraphs. The boldly colored illustrations complement the text. A unique feature of these books is the inclusion of brief “sum up” statements. Experiments and discussion questions are sprinkled throughout the text, allowing for hands-on exploration of the concepts presented.—School Library Connection
