The Living Skills books are a series of 27 books by award-winning author Joy Berry. Like all of the Joy Berry books, this series stresses individual responsibility. The purpose is to help kids develop into self-sufficient, intelligent, independent thinking young adults. The books in the Joy Berry “classics” have sold over 85 million copies and helped hundreds of thousands of parents and kids over the past twenty years.

Your brain is an important part of you. It performs many wonderful functions. All these functions are important in thinking and learning. In Every Kid’s Guide To Thinking And Learning, Joy Berry looks at this process. Topics include:
• thinking,
• curiosity,
• learning styles,
• teaching styles,
• the best styles for you,
• knowing, and
