The title of You Have a Brain: A Teen's Guide to T.H.I.N.K. B.I.G centers on the advice Ben Carson's mother gave him and his brother: you have a brain-use it. The well-known neurosurgeon Dr. Benjamin Carson has overcome the obstacles of his father's leaving the family, being considered stupid by his classmates in grade school, and having a violent temper. He articulates eight principles that helped shape his future and which make up thinking big: Talent, Honesty, Insight, being Nice, Knowledge, Books, In-Depth Learning, and God.Writing for a teen audience, Carson amply demonstrates that the effective use of one's brain does trump peer pressure. In his experience, "peers" were actually People EncouragingErrors, Rudeness and stupidity. Carson also makes clear that his own battle with an out-of-control temper required help from God, though using his brain to recognize the need was essential.Gregg Lewis is the author or coauthor of more than 50 books, and Deborah Shaw Lewis has authored or coauthored more than a dozen books; the two are the parents of five children. As a team they have worked with Dr. Carson and are able to articulate insights in a fashion that encourages personal assessment.Leroy Hommerding, CLJ

    Excellent seller! The booklet was handsomely and safely packed, exactly as described and in remarkable condition for a 50-some year old ‘disposable’ book, great value for my limited funds and quickly shipped Altho it took a little longer to get to me due to all the problems at various USPS distribution hubs, but that’s not the fault of the seller. Great job, very satisfied with the transaction, I would gladly buy from again!

    Seller is wonderful and very attentive. Seller shipped right away, and tracking updated for several days, until USPS lost my parcel and tracking stopped updating. Sure, I wish my doll had arrived, but such is life and the seller refunded me even though it is the fault of USPS, and I appreciate it. I would buy from again, their items are lovely and seller is very kind. If the little dolly ever turns up, I will let you know!

  • perfect for the young mind

    got this for my almost teenage son...he really enjoyed it. We have had discussions together on it too. Dr Carson is one of his favorite roll models. And if Carson played any professional sports, he'd be the #1 role model of all role models LOL
