Presented in Q&A format, the 48 cards will introduce you to the world of young genius, from a physician-philosopher who lived more than a thousand years ago to present-day artists, athletes, musicians, mathematicians, and more. The front of each card challenges you to identify the prodigy described; the back provides the answer and a brief survey of the individual's unique life, gifts, and accomplishments.
