I bought this book for my 7 yr old son's biography book report. Although some of what was said at the beginning was difficult for him to understand, later in the book it became clearer through further explanation. Cute book and was perfect for what we had it for.

There are lots of interesting facts, but it doesn't tell everything about Albert Einstein. All the chapters are only 1 or 2 pages long.

This book gave me enough information to know about Einstein.
I think it could really help younger kids learn about him without reading a chapter book
or something.
