“The Genius books empower children to understand thoughts, experience jobs and generate enthusiasm to create a happy life. These books introduce lovely characters, who are meant to inspire children (including adult children) with enquiring minds to imagine, dream, achieve and succeed. Learning a new way to think, as well as developing self-belief and confidence, delivers a world of possibilities to create bright and happy futures. This is my legacy for future generations. Understanding our mindset is essential for everything we do in life, and we are never too young (or too old) to tap into our inner genius.” Wendy Ann Marquenie.

Wendy Ann Marquenie is the creator of Inner Genius Global, which inspires young people to develop skills and abilities for critical thinking, thus laying the foundation for them to create happier, clearer, more contented lives. She believes that critical thinking is fundamental for children’s education because it encourages intellectual and emotional growth. This in turn then fosters competent adults who have nurtured imagination, developed creativity, excellent communication and effective problem-solving skills.

Inner Genius Global empowers children to develop their critical thinking by showing them how to use their minds to investigate different themes through books, activities and educational programs. Under the brand Genius & His Friends, Wendy encourages children to imagine, dream, achieve and succeed as they explore the world alongside the engaging characters of Genius and his friends.
