Born in England in 1643, Isaac Newton grew up in the age when Renaissance thinkers were challenging accepted ideas throughout Europe. Fascinated by all earthly science, Newton developed laws of motion and universal gravitation which also furthered our understanding of the movement of celestial bodies. This vibrant biography profiles the famed physicist as an acclaimed mathematician, astronomer, alchemist, philosopher, and inventor as well. Readers will discover the genius who inspired Alexander Pope to write, "Nature and nature's laws lay hid in night; God said 'Let Newton be' and all was light."National Geographic supports K-12 educators with ELA Common Core Resources.Visit www.natgeoed.org/commoncore for more information. From the Hardcover edition.

Fantastic book on the life and contributions of Isaac Newton. Although this is written as a children's book it is actually an assignment for my daughter's AP Physics class. It gives a multitude of information on very colorful pages. It is easy to read and understand. Very highly recommend.

I am 8. I think that the book is really good! It tells you facts. Birth and when he died. And lots more.

Sir Isaac Newton has always been one of my heroes. This is an excellent book that is interesting and not overly ponderous. Well done.

Easy book for children to understand while covering important topics on the life of Newton

Once again, this was bought for my grandsons who are still in elementary school. Science was a major influence in teaching our kids about the world around them and I wanted my grandsons to appreciate it also.
