November 30, 2023 So sorry to report that something had me gone for a month or so here on Litsy. Idk what happened to my account BUT i managed to email them and get it fixed... EVERYTHING IS A-OK! Anyway I finished this book last week and I thought it was a good book. I would recommend it to anyone who likes Temple Grandin or just wants to read the difference between a visual thinker & object thinker 😊

A lot of good information packed into too few chapters -- 60-90 minutes each. While I appreciate the underdog perspective of someone who is a visual thinker and thus subject to a lot of bias and exclusion, the book reads too much like an us vs them where one is superior (visual thinking). Not sure that's the intent but that's how comes across. Anyway, as someone who trends visual over verbal, it's nice to have such in depth discourse on the topic.

This was an interesting read, I appreciated all the ways the authors suggested for helping to embed creative exercises and changing ways of thinking and doing to enhance creativity in one‘s life. I did not appreciate the vast amounts of extra writing on what are perhaps an over abundance of examples. But it was a good way to learn ways to grow my creativity on my own life.
2/5 read for lots of details and examples on how to increase creativity

3✨ I read this with my Bible study group, and it was a really good book to read chapter by chapter with them. Each week I feel we got something out of the chapter we read to help us mentally deal with our various needs. There was a lot of examples which helped us to have discussions on what was going on in our lives and what we could do to improve our mindset. ⬇️

Roary47 There was moments we chuckled at the authors humor and other times we really felt we needed to work on what was being discussed. Definitely, a good read 7mo

4 ⭐ Eddy is the daughter of Charles Darwin. Her full name is Henrietta, but she prefers to go by Eddy. This book is about how she walks along the sand walk that her father walks, just to think. No one knows exactly what questions, Eddy and her father posed on these rocks, the author poses the question “are fairies real?”. The reader sees how Charles teaches his daughter to have an open mind and the way his daughter teaches her father that not

LibrarianRyan everything is as it seems. Overall, this was a lovely book and unlike many nonfiction books, would be very easy to read at story time. 7mo

Another 'based on real people and events' picture book with a little girl as the lead, by Lauren Soloy. I'm loving the theme, and her art!
