I ❤ the focus on how much wondering and questioning Einstein did as a child & the importance of 📚 and 🎶 or floating in a ⛵
When I was a kid a biography would focus on dates giving me nothing to relate to except a timeline. Kids don't yet know how equations can delineate the mysteries of the universe, and they don't need to understand genius, but they might relate to someone who doesn't want to wear socks.
