Written for 3-8 year-olds this picture book on Albert Einstein has good pictures but isn't really all that attention catching for young readers and may be harder for new readers so they would need to be read with older readers who may find the facts boring in how they are shared. Personally, I don't find this to be a good book for the intended readers and wouldn't purchase it for my little siblings.

I love these short introductions for children. Always fascinating and beautifully illustrated. I would adapt these to use in the classroom or recommend them to the school library.

I admire the goal of this new series, to inspire the inner genius in children, and make reading fun, but this book didn't quite make it. The text glosses over Einstein's learning disability and social awkwardness, which many children could relate to, and the illustrations are too contemporary (there's no way a childhood classroom of Einstein's would have a poster of the "Hang in there!" kitten, for one thing). I'm sorry to say it, but this book just didn't do it for me.

This book is a great introduction to one of the greatest modern scientists, Albert Einstein. It uses easy to understand terminology that's perfect for young elementary readers. I enjoyed the simple facts provided, and the reiteration that just because people may think you won't succeed, doesn't mean that's true. If you try and apply yourself, you can become the next household name in any field you choose!

A beautifully illustrated book for children that shows them to believe in themselves and pursue what they love even if others tell them they are wrong. I love this series and will definitely be adding them to my nephews library.

We love this series so very much and this book is no exception. I love that it introduces kids to really important people while not overwhelming them with facts beyond their age.

The content in this children's nonfiction book is very good. Maybe authors could include a few other facts, but OK, this is a children's book. I like that this is simple to understand, so even younger children could understand roughly what this great scientist was researching. One thing that bothered me the most was the illustrations. Einstein didn't resemble enough the real Albert Einstein. He was Jewish, and he had dark hair but pretty light skin.
Thanks to the publisher for the ARC and the opportunity to read this! All opinions are my own.

The book told the journey of Einstein from his younger years through to him being the scientist we all know.
It is a nice text to use in a science curriculum to give learners an insight to this man.

This is a really nice book about the life and times of Albert Einstein with catchy illustrations that grabbed my little boy's attention.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for my copy.

This is a great children's book which shows the life of Albert Einstein from when he was a boy in Germany until he was an adult. It was fascinating to read about his life story and how he didn't do very well at school, but went on to become a highly successful physicist who developed his theory of relativity and then went on to win a nobel prize for his outstanding work. The book had very nice illustrations and the text was easy for children to read.
Many thanks to the author, publisher and Net Galley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Albert Einstein's story told as if he grew up in modern day, facing challenges that can be relatable for many children who learn in different ways.

Albert Einstein was a curious youth,but did not learn in the same ways as everyone else. Though some adults in his life may have discouraged him, he continued to learn how the world worked. Einstein went on to make many scientific discoveries and won the Nobel Prize in physics.
This book is thoroughly written in language easy t9 understand by children. As an educator, I would recommend this book for a school or classroom library. It could be used in a unit of biographies. This book could be inspirational for students who learn differently.
Thank you to NetGalley and Inspired Inner Genius for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is a beginning biography of Einstein. One thing in this book I have not read in others were all the tests he had to take to get into school after not finishing high school. This book is nice but it is trying too hard to be Little People Big World or I am. It even tries to use the same story formula and layout. And I am sorry but this story is just a pale comparison to the bigger, more established series.

These sets of books are brilliant for my reluctant reader.
We really enjoyed reading and learning about Einstein together.
The series of books are a really great learning tool for my home edded girls of 8 and 10. They really get us to discuss and learn about new people and new theories.
Thankyou Netgalley.

A great introduction into the life of Albert Einstein. The story gave a good outline of the scientists life and had a clear message about what you can achieve if you work hard. Perfect for elementary aged children.

Inspired Inner Genius is a publisher that believes every child is born a genius, and they are on a journey to inspire the world, one child at a time.
The first book in the series, Inspired Inner Genius features Albert Einstein -- one of the most well known scientists to study physics. The book shows young readers that through dedication, hard work, and perseverance, you can accomplish your goals.

This was a great book. The illustrations are really beautiful and they would surely keep the attention of a kid that is reading this. The book is inspiring and very easy to understand. I think kids would love reading this as much as I did.

Albert Einstein by Inspired Inner Genius is a beautiful biographical picture book which teaches that even children of ordinary intellect can grow up to accomplish great things. It includes another brief biography at the end. I loved it!

I accessed this title for review purposes via NetGalley. My thoughts are my own and my review is honest.
This is an illustrated kids' story version of Albert Einstein's biography and claims to be suitable for ages 3-8.
The good:
- The illustrations are interesting and a few make me suspect I've seen the artist's work before, though I can't put a finger on where. (Who is the artist? I didn't see an illustrator credit in the review file. I actually suspect there may be more than one.)
- The messages about different kinds of intelligence and how not fitting in doesn't mean you're worthless are great!
- Anything to introduce kids to STEM and history is wonderful in my opinion, and this will do that.
The bad:
- Text to illustration ratio is not suitable for preschool. My 3.5 year old lost interest on page 1.
- This is presented as a biography of Einstein but it's entirely education and scientific contribution. There's a lot more to Einstein's life than his rocky high school years and his physics papers. He was a German Jew during WWII for goodness sake! It would also be nice to see mention of his dyslexia, considering part of the book's message is that not every smart kid finds school easy.
I think this book could be a good start to introducing kids to Einstein or to the scientific advancements of the 20th century, but I do think it should be paired with historical context and/or additional exploration of Einstein's life. I disagree with the recommended reader age and would say this is for kids 5/6+ depending on reading level and interest.

Even I, as an adult, learned from reading this book! It was a well done intro to the well known scientist for kids! I appreciated how it showed how even kids who don’t follow the obvious path can still be successful with hard work
