(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Emily Bornoff. You can't always trust your brain! That's the message of this psychology and neuroscience book, demonstrated through sensory illusions, magic tricks, and scams. Kids may have seen some of these before, but with lots of hands-on (or brains-on) activities and lively cartoon illustrations, they'll find plenty here to entertain themselves as they acquire some good tips for thinking critically.
