Riding on a Beam of Light

Ever wonder what Albert Einstein was like as a child? He definitely had an active imagination, and we are able to see a bit of that in Riding on A Beam of Light. When his mother turns out the light, Albert's mind turns to dreams and ponderings! Young Albert becomes a role model in this story, and shows how important imagination is, both in science and in everyday life. He encourages children to question how things work, and most of all to dream big!

I have to say that the illustrations really steal the show. Big and bright, with an almost magical quality to them, Noah Hamdan has managed to make Albert's childhood into something beautiful! I was blow away by how crisp they looked, even in my digital version. I know that young readers will love exploring Riding on a Beam of Light. Hopefully it inspires them to grow and learn!
