After writing several award-winning health and nutrition titles that have had great success in the UK, Nicola Graimes makes her debut in the US market with the first book to focus on children and brain power and the foods that truly can improve intelligence and those that can hinder it.

The first is full of advice, bursting with color photographs and helpful scientific facts as palatable for adult readers as the recipes are for their children.
