We all know of Albert Einstein¡¯s great genius and accomplishments.
But as a young boy, schoolwork didn¡¯t always come easily for him. But what did set young Albert apart was his unending curiosity and his continuing questioning of ¡°how things worked¡±. His instructors often viewed Albert¡¯s curiosity and need for understanding as a ¡°lack of concentration¡± on school subjects.

As a young man Albert was challenged to overcome many hardships ?separation from his family, religious discrimination and the political turmoil of his day. But Albert did overcome, and this story will inspire young readers as they learn what drove one of the greatest minds of the 20th century.

The book also contains a helpful glossary of scientific terms and an informative historical timeline.
