How Your Brain Makes Memories

Iris Fennimore

Your brain is a detective agency where electric mail carriers race through secret tunnels, passing chemical notes from one spy to the next. Every time you remember your best friend's laugh or your favorite breakfast, a tiny librarian in your hippocampus is filing it away. Iris Fennimore turns neuroscience into a mission kids can actually picture, with each chapter building the next like puzzle pieces snapping together. Duncan Winslow reads it like a friendly guide showing you hidden doors in a house you thought you knew, clear enough for curious eight-year-olds but never talking down. Good for bedtime learners and classroom daydreamers alike.
