This visually astonishing story takes children on a journey into and through the brain. Simple but beautifully illustrated metaphors explain the different jobs that our brains do, and how they use brain cells to accomplish them. From the senses to sleep, memories to making decisions, this book brings the wonder of brains and brain science to life.

Factual - My favourite bit was when the cell monsters tell you about sight. I didn't the bit where they introduce themselves and the last pages where they did the questions and answers because they were too boring!
