What Makes a Person ‘Left’ or ‘Right’ Handed?

Some people are left-handed because of how their brain works. Imagine your brain is like a team with two players: one on the left side and one on the right. If the left player is stronger, you might prefer using your left hand. This happens in about 1 out of every 10 people.
