This was a really cute short bio on Albert Einstein. I loved the information they offered on him and how he regretted the atom bomb.

'Albert Einstein' by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara with illustrations by Jean Claude is a book in the Little People, BIG DREAMS series.
Albert Einstein was born in Germany and didn't speak for 4 years. He wasn't great at school, but loved physics and math. His job at the patent office brought him some of his greatest theories. He was a pacifist and wanted equality.
This is a great biography of a smart man. The biography is kid friendly as are all in this series. The illustrations this time around are also great as usual.

I do love the Little People, Big Dreams series and this one on Albert Einstein is no exception. They're a very accessible way for little kids to learn about significant people and their achievements and pique interest in a variety of areas that they may not be typically exposed to, in this case STEAM areas. My 6 year old loved learning about Einstein and loved the drawings of his 'crazy hair' and theories stuck up on his childhood home as well as his advocacy. Another excellent addition to the series.

Lovely illustrations by Jean Claude. I keep mentioning endpapers, but the white chalk on a blackboard equations are perfection. I didn’t know about his work to help other Jewish scientists be hired in America and escape persecution by the nazis, so I’m even more glad I read this book.
