My Perception Pointer Is My Decision Maker (Genius Books)

Perception Pointer is purple because he likes that it is a bold, calm and regal colour that stands out. Everyone’s perception is about their beliefs and opinions. When people talk and they want to make a point, they sometimes hold up a finger, rather like Perception Pointer is doing. This gesture is saying, “Wait a moment. Let’s think about this a little more.” This helps to create awareness. As children have opinions and beliefs about everyday things and about what they are capable of achieving, Perception Pointer has amazing reality goggles to see into the future. 

Genius and his friends live in a place called MindWorld, which is a community in your mind. It is a very special place, created by you. Your thoughts are unique and special, so enjoy each character as they take you on a journey of your feelings, emotions and critical thinking skills through MindWorld.

Early praise for the Genius books:

This incredibly empowering book for children made me smile the whole way through. This book gives children both the understanding as well as the “OK” to be themselves and to not feel like they have to be the same as everyone else. Children have this ability to relax and shine when they are allowed to do so, and Wendy Marquenie has written and captured this beautifully.

Debbie Small—Empowerment Point

I spent my childhood years enjoying life within a small family unit-Mum, Dad, my sister and me. My childhood years were filled with laughter and the smell of cakes and biscuits baking in the oven. We always looked forward to our family holidays at the beach for Christmas and New Year. Mum and Dad were always encouraging and supportive of all my endeavours.As I grew and expanded my experiences, I reflected on memories and considered the what-ifs. The what-ifs began showing me opportunities, and I discovered that I had the power to change the direction of my life at any moment in time. Life's journey as a mother, wife, career person, author and business owner encouraged a deep desire to leave a legacy; something to be valued by generations to come.For as long as I can remember, I have always had a passion and excitement for dance. Dancing from the age of six, I received many accolades-including a dance scholarship at nine years of age in both tap and ballet. Through study and application, I experienced the joy and satisfaction of qualifying as a Latin and Ballroom dance teacher and adjudicator, teaching all ages of dancers from six to eighty. However, at times, life presents challenges and offers opportunities for a completely different journey.While dealing with an illness in 2016, I read a book that would change the direction of my life. This book, You Were Born Rich, was written by Bob Proctor. How did it change my life? I asked myself, "What is life, really? Who Am I?" And other questions along those lines. The next few years were filled with studying, learning and attending seminars, trying to understand this material that I found so fascinating and exhilarating. I was learning about myself and what makes me tick. After attending one seminar, I wrote my first book, How to Change Your Life in Six Days, followed by my next book, Big Girl's Pants. Both books reflected upon the information I was learning, and they focused on bringing out our inner genius to achieve and succeed in life.However, what I found most gratifying was witnessing the smiles and enthusiasm on children's faces when they had accomplished a new skill. It is this enthusiasm and confidence in themselves that I wanted to harness and grow. Children's minds are open to learning new things such as a dance step or playing the piano. 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.Life is an incredible journey. Just one decision in your life can change your destiny, just like it did for me. Make your best decision and you can achieve it too. Experience it - Believe it - Do it - Love it!
