-Albert Einstein? You want me to interview Albert Einstein?-Billy Whitestone has the assignment of a lifetime when his school paper sends him to interview the famous physicist. Billy discovers that while Einstein is reluctant to be interviewed, he loves children, and that his genius was t always recognized by those around him.In this fictionalized biography, Frieda Wishinsky creates a detailed portrait of 19th century Germany and young Albert Einstein, a mischievous student who is slow to learn and often temperamental. Through Billy's visit with the aging Einstein, readers are given an introduction to the life and achievements of the world-famous scientist.Both a picture book and an historical biography, What's the Matter with Albert? uses kid-friendly language and stunning oil paintings to engage young readers. A chrology of the important events in Einstein's life follows the text, providing easy reference. Jacques Lamontagne's evocative artwork is based on archival photographs, drawing readers into the world of Albert Einstein.
