Does crude stereotypization of a scientist really help children to understand science? Not for me, thanks.

Christensen addressed her book to older children (primary-junior high). It is full of facts, but not overloaded. Alfred A. Knopf’s illustrations are nice, but do not distract attention from the narrative. I like it. Christensen’s Galileo is a man driven by his curiosity and intellect to discover the truth. A book much recommended especially in the U.S. This book will certainly get back to my child’s bookshelf.
“A person must be allowed to ask questions, […] and seek answers in search of truth.”
“The old man is a prisoner, but the truth? The truth has a way of escaping into the light.”
