Ordinary Genius: The Story of Albert Einstein (Trailblazer Biographies)
Grade 5-8?The underlying theme of this clearly written biography is the subject's humanism. Otherwise, the book is similar to both Joyce Goldenstern's Albert Einstein (Enslow, 1995) and Milton Dank's Albert Einstein (Watts, 1983; o.p.). Many of the black-and-white photographs in McPherson's book appear in other titles, but some of the family pictures are not usually seen elsewhere. A worthwhile purchase?even for libraries owning Goldenstein's and Dank's volumes?because of its humanistic approach.?Margaret M.
