For the past several years I have been surrounded by friends and colleagues with children. And of course they are full of stories of what their kids have come up with. I will add a couple below. I find it amazing how wise (and very funny sometimes) children are in their innocence. I was thinking that it would be amazing to put together many such stories and create books about them. I would title the books 'Innocent Intelligence' and the subtitle can be the country the children are from, so 'Innocent Intelligence - Romania', 'Innocent Intelligence - Spain' etc. etc. You can see a few examples below:

Albert (2 and a half - loves eating, finds his mom in the kitchen):

- Mummy, I love you!

- Why do you love me, Albert?

- Because you feed me

Mircea (3 years old):

- Mummy, where is my toy plane?

- I don't know, Mircea, you played with it

- No, I don't know. You know everything!

Luca (5, talking to his parents):

- I will start a shop on wheels. With an engine. I will drive it and if someone wants me to stop, I will stop. So that the shop comes to people, instead of people going to the shop. Isn't this a good idea?

Aaron (7, talking to his mom):

- Mummy, why do you smoke?

- Because it makes me happy.

- No, mummy, your happiness is not inside the cigarette

- But where is it, Aaron?

- Inside you, mummy, inside you.

Albert (3, after his mom found him the balcony, after he was shouting for her):

- Mummy, I didn't know what to do.

- Why, Albert?

- I had two voices in my head; one was telling me to keep quiet, the other one to call for you. I didn't know which one to listen to.

Mom was worried and she asked about the voices. It turns out that's what he called his thoughts.
