The distance around the world at the equator is 24,900 miles. The average adult human brain weighs three pounds, has a texture like firm jelly and is made up of 75 percent water Size doesn’t matter in the brain. There is no evidence that a larger brain is smarter than a smaller brain. Song: “Feed Your Brain”, by Steve Ferris Story: “Eddie and the Brain from Space”, by Steve Ferris Here is the poem that inspired this story: “One kid was good in a class full of jerks Who thought it wouldn’t work to not do their work. So his brain grew strong while their’s grew lame, And that was how it was until this one day. A man-eating brain from space came looking for food And when it smelled all the weak minds, and ate the entire room. But when it came upon the kid focused on his book, He turned away and flew to space Without a second look.”
