When he was born in 1879, Albert was a peculiarly fat baby with an
unusually big and misshaped head. When he was older, he hit his
sister, frustrated his teachers, and had few friends. But Albert's
strange childhood also included his brilliant capacity for puzzles
and problem solving: the mystery of a compass's swirling needle,
the intricacies of Mozart's music, the secrets of geometry--set his
mind spinning with ideas. In fact, Albert Einstein's ideas were
destined to change the way we know and understand the world and our
place in the universe. In spare, precise text filled with graceful
detail and accompanied by sometimes humorous, sometimes lonely
portraits, Don Brown introduces us to the less than magnificent
beginnings of an odd boy out. The result is a tender rendering of
the adventures of growing up for one of the most important thinkers
of the twentieth century.
