Praise for the ThinkAboutIt Series: "I share this organization's innovative materials at my workshops for teachers and parents interested in bringing philosophy to children. I applaud such an enthusiastic effort to honor the promise and natural abilities of child philosophers."- Marietta McCarty, Author Little Big Minds: Sharing Philosophy with Kids (National Bestseller) How Philosophy Can Save Your Life: 10 Ideas That Matter Most (Nautilus Book Award Winner) "Philosophy for kids is a splendid idea in general-and the ThinkAboutIt books are splendid in particular, not merely as ideas, but splendid in the practice of both words and drawings. The books can open your children's eyes, stretching them to the fascinations of the world, from robots to free choices to the colours of flowers and just what is matter and mind."- Peter Cave, Author, Do Llamas Fall in Love?: 33 Perplexing Philosophy Puzzles "Hurrah for Amy Leask!

She manages to make philosophy not only approachable, but fun and engaging, for kids.
