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.
