How much do kids really know about Albert Einstein besides the funny hair and genius label? For instance, do they know that he was expelled from school as a kid?

“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 had known of him before I read this book, but thanks to it, I’ve understood much better who he was, what he did and what difficulty he went through.
As we can tell from this book, he thought about anything that interested him more deeply than anyone on this planet, so it seemed like that he was more like a professional thinker than a scientist.
My favorite quote of him is “For an idea that does not at first seem insane, there is no hope.” This one comes up at the very beginning of this book, and this quote strongly encourages me to do whatever, other people think, is weird, silly or insane.”
