MONDAY NIGHT ON NINE Monday, July 9
7.30pm - I AM A CHILD GENIUS
They are some of the most gifted children in the world and on Monday,
July 9 they’re on Channel Nine.
At 7.30pm, I Am A Child Genius introduces the amazing Adam, Mikhail and
Michael. Adam Napier-Smith has a level of intelligence found in just one
child in 100,000. At age six Adam’s IQ is off the scale and he has the
mathematical ability of a 16-year-old.
At three, Mikhail is as cute as a button and the youngest ever member of
Mensa, an international organisation for people with an IQ in the top
two per cent of the general population. He can multiply five figure
numbers before most kids can count to 10.
Michael Dowling is 11 but when he was eight he became Britain’s youngest
published author, with his first novel racing up the bestseller list.
He’s currently learning two musical instruments, seven languages
(including Mandarin and Old Norse), and he is already a gourmet cook
specialising in medieval cuisine.
