Collins Big Cat - Meet Your Brain: Band 15/Emerald
Paperback
Your brain is amazing! Find out how it affects everything that we do, even how we feel.
Emerald/Band 15 books provide a widening range of genres including science fiction and biography, prompting more ways to respond to texts.

Ideas for reading in the back of the book provide practical support and stimulating activities.
Kathryn Kendall Boucher is an editor and author, with a wealth of experience in educational and children’s publishing. She has a degree in English Literature from the University of Sheffield, where she also completed modules in philosophy and psychoanalysis. This led to a deep interest in human thought processes, emotions and brain development, and she has continued to learn about these subjects. This has helped Kathryn to become a calmer, kinder and more understanding person, and she hopes that this book will help young learners to understand themselves, and others, a little more too.

Book banded for guided and independent reading, there are reading notes in the back, comprehensive teaching and assessment support and ebooks available.
