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.
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.
