Our New Kids VIB

 

A boy rides a bicycle down a dusty road. But in his mind, he envisions himself traveling at a speed beyond imagining, on a beam of light. This brilliant mind will one day offer up some of the most revolutionary ideas ever conceived. From a boy endlessly fascinated by the wonders around him, Albert Einstein ultimately grows into a man of genius recognized the world over for profoundly illuminating our understanding of the universe. Jennifer Berne and Vladimir Radunsky invite the reader to travel along with Einstein on a journey full of curiosity, laughter, and scientific discovery. Parents and children alike will appreciate this moving story of the powerful difference imagination can make in any life.

 



Kate B. says:
"A well-loved, always questioning, young Albert Einstein goes for a speedy bike ride and imagines himself racing through space on a beam of light. This broad thought in his imagination spurs him on to read and explore and ask about light and sound and force and mathematics and energy and molecular structure, etc. Einstein grew into a respected genius and is known for revealing and explaining the mysteries of our universe. Jennifer Berne tells a story of a funny, brilliant, peaceful and always wondering man while Vladimir Radunsky whimsically, beautifully and softly illustrates the tale of a great and always moving man."


 Every now and then we encounter a new children's book that we’re so excited about we want to broadcast it, so we've created a Kids' TC VIB (very impressive book) for a real stand-out among the many delightful and meaningful new books for young readers.
