"The descriptions of young Albert's difficulties in school, which will enthrall young readers, embody what the author does particularly well throughout this book - depict Einstein as a person both like and unlike others. McPherson provides readers with a strong impression of an independent mind at work - so strong, in fact, that children may wish they could have met the genius. That's high praise for a biography." --Booklist -Journal
