We were even scared when we found out how smart she is,”says 37-year-old mother of the child, Nadine. "She's special without a doubt, but we still don't realize how vast her potential is."
The woman realized that her child was a child prodigy when, at the age of seven months, Alana began to pronounce the first words, and less than a year later she was already talking in full sentences. At the age of three, the girl learned to independently read excerpts from her favorite stories. Nadine turned to specialists to check Alana's mental development. Based on the test results, they concluded that the girl reads at the level of a seven-year-old child, and speaks and reasoned like a 6.5-year-old.
