Newton's Rainbow: The Revolutionary Discoveries of a Young Scientist

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Kevin Hawkes. This picture book biography focuses on Newton's early years, showing how young he was when he began making major contributions to science. Words and pictures in combination do a good job of rendering complex and theoretical concepts for elementary-age readers, and Lasky does her best to dispel the myth of the falling apple and emphasize the groundbreaking nature of Newton's discoveries.
