This story is about the famous Scientist known as Isaac Newton. It talks about his life from when he was born. He was a tiny baby but grew up to be a very smart boy. He loves to observe and experiment things on his imagination that he was curious about. Isaac’s mother was not supportive of him going to school but through his curiosity Isaac never stop. He made it to college and he discover so many things including the Rainbow, Gravity and how light travels. Isaac Newton Graduate from Trinity College and became a scholar. He lived to the age of 84.

I like this book because it starts from the very beginning of the main character’s life. Student likes to know about the characters when they were young. I like the bibliography at the end of the book because if the reader want to do research it would be useful to use bibliography. I love the style of the illustrations which is simple for the students to understand. This book also present a very wonderful theme for every student to learn from. Never give up because anything is possible.
