Who Was Albert Einstein?

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.

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.

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!

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

My eight year old third grader needed a book for a book report project. There are mixed reviews on this book, so I was hesitant, but there aren't many options that are appropriate for a third grader on Albert Einstein. This book served it's purpose and my daughter enjoyed reading it as well (bonus!) She's an avid reader, so it was really easy for her, but I would say it's a good book for any elementary school aged child.

My son loved this 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.

My 8 year old loves these books! They are full of great information and easy to read and follow along. I enjoy reading them together and discussing the history in them!
