Great Lives in Graphics: Albert Einstein reimagines the lives of extraordinary people in vivid technicolor, presenting 250+ fascinating facts in a new and exciting way.
You may already know that Albert Einstein was a scientist, but did you know he never wore socks?
Or that he had a violin named Lina?
This graphic retelling of Albert’s story gives children a visual snapshot of his life and the world he grew up in, while educating them on everything from how gravity works to the importance of creative thinking.
The Great Lives in Graphics series is a new way of looking at the lives of famous and influential people. It takes the essential dates and achievements of each person’s life, mixes them with lesser-known facts and trivia, and uses infographics to show them in a fresh visual way that is genuinely engaging for children and young adults.
The result is a colorful, fascinating, and often surprising representation of that person’s life, work, and legacy. Using timelines, maps, repeated motifs and many more beautiful and informative illustrations, readers learn not just about the main subject of the book but also about the cultural background of the time in which they lived.

Reviews
“Discover the life and work of famous scientist Albert Einstein in this beautifully designed infographic book. Learn about his early life in Germany and his passion for the truth. Find out about Einstein’s theories of relativity and how his incredible insights helped to explain how the universe works.”—The Week Junior: Science + Nature
"The book could be useful in a STEM curriculum or science class. Einstein biographies are very popular with students, and this book is a different approach with less biographical material and more space devoted to explaining Einstein’s scientific achievements."—Association of Jewish Libraries
