One of the world's greatest minds, Albert Einstein did not talk at the appropriate age. Concerned, his parents waited and hoped for the best. One night, while watching shooting stars, the young boy spoke in a question, with the word "WHY"

Lovely, sharp images make this book worth reading.

The genre of this book is biography. It tells the story of when Albert Einstein was a child who never spoke a word until he was quite big. He was always curious, until one day, he finally asked his mother, "Why?" after watching shooting stars for a long time. He remained curious throughout his life, and remains as one of the world's greatest mind. This book would be appropriate for a 1st-2nd grade classroom.
