There are some 400 million people worldwide whose creativity, imagination, and determination put the rest of us to shame. They are experts in their field, despite having no experience to speak of. Once, you were one of them, too. They are toddlers—and they hold the key to unlocking our creative potential as adults.

From attention-grabbing tactics that would humble most marketing experts to the art of thinking divergently, Lindley shows how much we’ve lost in getting old—and how we can get it back.
