Everyone knows who Einstein grew up to be, but not what he was like as a child. This book allows readers to do just that. ( )

I used this book for my Famous Americans Unit. It is part of a wonderful series of books that really help young students develop research skills. It is written in a story format but has a wealth of historical information that can be used in a report. It is broken down in to a chronological time line which is easy to follow. Can be easily read by third graders and up. ( )
