How to SEE. Your brain is magic -- Seeing like Sherlock Holmes -- Facts versus filters -- Winning at hide-and-seek -- How to THINK about what you see. The playground made you smarter -- Train like a spy on what's missing -- How to TALK about what you see. Why Mickey Mouse can't point -- Describing the rainbow.

"What would you say if I told you that looking at abstract paintings could give you the confidence you need to speak up in class? Or that learning the history of donuts could help you think like a super spy and train like the CIA? smART teaches readers how to think critically and creatively, a skill that only requires you to open your eyes and actively engage your brain. This young reader's adaptation is based on Visual Intelligence by Amy E. Herman"--
