Children know how to amaze us, it's really true. With their imagination and insight they manage to create wonderful things despite their lack of experience and knowledge due to their age. Usually, however, what they attract attention for is how they play and the ideas they come up with, especially when they are very small - like the subject of this story.

This infant became famous on the internet for having been at the center of a one-of-a-kind incident. In fact, at just 2 years old, little Isla has joined the group of the smartest people in the world. Let's find out about this story together.

Isla McNabb, from Kentucky, is a 2-year-old little girl who has left everyone speechless for her amazing skills, despite her tender age. As her mother, Amanda and father Jason, have said in various interviews they have given, ever since she was born they had noticed something unusual about their child. As time passed, her peculiarities became more pronounced and the two parents discovered that Isla was able to write down some letters and she had a growing vocabulary. This advanced knowledge in a infant so young is not normal and this phenomenon encouraged Isla's parents to investigate.

As time passed, it turned out that the little girl was not only able to write and had a good command of the alphabet - which is only typically achieved between the ages of 6 and 7 for children - but she was also able to count, do some very simple calculations, to pronounce words correctly and to read. In short, Isla is a true child prodigy and her achievements encouraged her parents to have her IQ tested.

Once the test was over, the result was truly incredible: the little girl scored very high on the test and, for this reason, she became part of a very special group of people. Isla was welcomed into MENSA, a nonprofit that has the smartest people in the world as its memebers. That's right - MENSA represents 2% of the world's population that have been proven to have an intelligence and ability well beyond the norm.

This is a true child prodigy who, at her young age, became famous on the internet and made history for her advanced skills and high IQ. Have you ever met a young genius?
