She reads to her baby sister and competes with her dad for the best score while watching Countdown. Yet Saffron Pledger is only three years old and won\'t even start school for another year-and-a-half. The little girl, who can also write and count to 50, is now set to join high IQ society Mensa after tests revealed she has an IQ of 140. While neither of her parents has a degree, it seems Saffron takes after her father Danny, who has won Channel 4\'s Countdown eight times. But despite an IQ that makes her brighter than 98 per cent of the population, she has the interests of a typical three-year-old. Saffron, whose favourite cartoon is Peppa, said: \"I am only a little girl but I\'m very pleased to have passed these tests, even if they were quite hard. I will be very pleased to become a member of Mensa. \"When I grow up I would like to play with toys all day. I am going to school soon and I will paint and draw and run around.\' Pledger, 23, a website designer, said: \"She likes watching Countdown with me, that\'s helped her learn the letters. \"She can spot very simple words on there. She\'s very competitive, I\'ll say I\'ve got a seven letter word and she\'ll say she\'s got an eight.\" Saffron\'s mother Kirstie, 23, a T-shirt designer, added: \"She\'s very confident when talking to different people, no matter who they are, and reads stories to her seven-month-old sister Willow. \"She can add up and subtract, she can read and write. If we get a book out of the library I\'ll read it to her once and she\'ll read it back to me the next time.\" From / Gulf News
