Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This exciting book introduces kids to the science of psychology, with chapters on the brain, personality, intelligence, emotions, social relationships, and more.

Accompanied by colorful illustrations of psychology's big ideas, and lots of hands-on experiments to try at home, there's no better way to dive into the fascinating science of the mind.

Why do we sleep? What are feelings? How do we make decisions, and how do we learn from them? Psychology helps us ask and answer these big questions about ourselves, others, and the world around us.
