Newton's Rainbow by Kathryn Lasky illustrated by Kevin Hawkes

Ms. Lasky shares interesting information about Newton's childhood, his years of education and his ongoing love to learn, to ask questions, and to experiment.  By reading this book, I learned there was more to Newton than "discovering" gravity!
Ms. Lasky also inserts fact boxes about Galileo and Kepler, scientists whom Newton admired and studied.
-Borrowed from the library.
A must reader for lovers'  of science, philosophy and mathematics.
