Odd Boy Out: Young Albert Einstein

32 pp. | Houghton | September, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-618-49298-4 $16.00
(1) K-3 Brown maintains a delicate tension between his accessible presentation (a straightforward text and uncluttered illustrations) and his extraordinary subject. He carefully and effectively summarizes events, choosing telling details to paint a portrait of an introspective child who struggles in school. An author's note debunks a few myths surrounding Einstein, and a short bibliography rounds out this inspired picture book biography.
