Was great!

I really enjoyed listening to this audio book. It was very entertaining and never a dull moment. I learned a lot about what our brains and what we are capable of if we use them!

I listen to this one often!

I loved it I go back to it when I need to encourage my grand children ! Thanks!!

Needs to be middle school curriculum.

Truly an inspiring story of triumph over struggle and the necessary attitude for lasting success.

Loved it!

My kids loved this book! It’s engaging, encouraging, and informative. My 12 year old son was especially engaged in Dr. Carson’s humble transparency and diligence. Are your kids struggling with peer pressure? Read the book. Are your kids struggling with entitlement? Read the book. Are your kids “bored” with reading? Read the book… just do it you won’t regret getting this one. Excellent!!

Excellent

Every youth 14-18, should read this about Ben Carson. And then every member of congress should be forced to read it.

A must listen for today's youth

Great story. Inspirational and thought-provoking. Best advice is to Dream Big. You can do whatever you put your mind to doing.

You Have a Brain Review

Would you listen to You Have a Brain again? Why?

Yes, The author shows how powerful your mind is if you use it. He certainly challenges everyone to seek all the adventures available as each will provide you with more skills and knowledge to enable you to be more than you ever thought was possible.

What other book might you compare You Have a Brain to and why?

I can't think of any similar book.

Which scene was your favorite?

The scene where he sees the lab tech job opening at a local college and decides to apply even though he is still in high school. He was able to submit an excellent resume because he had held many lab tech jobs in high school. He had obtained each job because his science teachers had recommended him highly to their colleagues after he had worked with them. However what really made him outstanding to the professor interviewing him was that he loved classical music as did the professor.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Do you have a brain?

Great

I really enjoy this insight to a great man in today's society and how he lets us know how to live our lives with greatness

Good book all about him

It was an interesting experience traveling through his life he could have been a serial killer as well. Lol

A must for every young person.

Excellent book with timeless principles and well delivered. A must for every young person and the rest of us too. I had the pleasure of meeting Ben and Candi and was touched by their warmth and sincerity.
