Who Was Albert Einstein? Paperback – Illustrated, February 18, 2002

I enjoyed reading this book with my grandson. Nicely written and some great pictures.

My just turned 12 year old aspiring scientist read this book in a little less than an hour and liked it. I guess I should have done a bit more research and maybe got her something a little more in depth, but it was enjoyed and will be passed on to others to enjoy and learn from.

This is a very good introduction to Albert Einstein for children. He lived in my home town for many years. There is one small issue. It says that after his wife and sister died he was "more alone than ever " Actually he lived with his stepdaughter who continued to live in his house for many years. She was a sculptor.

I'm a 2nd grade teacher and my students love Who Was Books so much that I keep having to replace them in my classroom library!

I got this for my sis year old. I think the language is challenging enough without it being too above level. It definitely inspires questions and look ups. My son's only complaint is the illustrations. He finds the cover creepy and the inside look careless. I think photos or more thought out illustrations could have made this good book even better.

My son loved this book.

Thank you, it arrived on time. My son loved the book.

I have stated previously that I like these titles because of the variety, interest level, and readability. As a tutor, I work with reluctant readers who often prefer nonfiction to fiction, so these are my goto resources for my students. The content is educational, not too easy as well as the vocabulary. I like that there are chapters and added content, sort of like side bars. The only thing lacking is an index, but there are great timelines which my student often reference.
