BIOGRAPHIES
Krull, Kathleen

Albert Einstein

(2) 4-6 Giants of Science series. Illustrated by Boris Kulikov. In this engrossing and remarkably accessible biography, Krull lingers just enough over Einstein's childhood to give readers time to connect with him; she also does an admirable job of explaining his theories. The text steers clear of hero worship, matter-of-factly describing Einstein's personal relationships. Kulikov's occasional pen-and-ink illustrations reflect the man's curiosity and imagination--and his unforgettable finger-in-a-light-socket hairstyle. Reading list, websites. Bib., ind.
