This book was field tested for five years in a public school classroom to ensure
that all vocabulary, story, and message were appropriate for young and emerging
readers.
Every reader, especially children, will find this book enjoyable and empowering.
The book carries a strong, positive self-image message that resonates with young
readers. In fact, in the five-year study, two teachers reported that 35 to 40% of
parents mentioned the book at the teacher-parent conference, a response they had
never seen with any other book.
Additionally, for emerging readers (8 to 12 years old), this book allows them to
believe in themselves. Far too often, struggling students. Don't think they are
NOT smart and give up on school. Their self-image is so poor. They feel there will
be no benefit gained by trying harder. Hearing the story of Albert Einstein does
wonders for their self-esteem and feelings about their future.
