tree that inspired Isaac Newton's theory of gravity. From a minor
seed to a monumental icon, it inspired the world's greatest minds,
including Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking. "A sweet windfall of
history and inspiration." -Kirkus (starred review) "This picture
book may resonate with science-minded children." -Booklist A tree
may seem like a rather ordinary thing. But hundreds of years ago, a
tree was about to embark on an extraordinary journey. And it all
started with just a speck of a seed. . . . It began in the 1600s
with a seed that became the tree that grew the apple that fell
right before Isaac Newton's eyes. This seemingly simple event
sparked one of the greatest scientific discoveries-Newton's theory
of gravity! A chain reaction of ideas and discoveries followed from
the likes of Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking, who traveled to
the place where these scientific journeys began-Isaac's tree. From
rocketing into space to adorning the queen's carriage, the Gravity
Tree's unexpectedly remarkable and true life story is a tale for
the ages. Award-winning journalist Anna Crowley Redding unearths
the story of how something so small could change the world. The
Gravity Tree is a beautiful nonfiction picture book to share at
home or in the classroom. A Bank Street Best Children's Book of the
Year A Kirkus Children's Best Book of the Year
