CONTENTS
I doubt it. I know a lot about Einstein.
But you dont know this.
Please excuse my brother. Turner and I have always been interested in famous people. We thought it would be cool to choose some celebrities and learn all about them. But we didnt want to learn regular, boring stuff about famous people that you can find anywhere. We want to learn about unusual stuff. Odd stuff. Strange stuff. Funny stuff.
Yeah, the stuff you dont see in regular biographies. For instance, did you know that when Albert Einstein died, his brain and eyeballs were removed from his body?
Wait. What? How do you know that? I didnt come across that in my research. Details!
Ill tell you all about it later.
Later? When? What chapter? I want to hear about Einsteins brain and eyeballs right now!
Sorry, not telling. Thats what you get for thinking youre smarter than me.
Not fair! Youre mean!
Be patient, sis. I think we should start this thing off by stating the obviousAlbert Einstein was a dope.
Turner! He was not!
It says it right on the cover of this book, so it must be true, right?
Dont believe everything you read in books. Especially book covers.
Oh yeah? You want facts? When he was a toddler, Albert Einstein had problems learning how to talk. His parents were so worried that they took him to see a doctor.
So what? He eventually learned how to talk the normal way. That doesnt make him a dope.
Oh yeah? His family maid called him the dopey one.
Thats true, but he was at the top of his class in school. He learned geometry on his own, studying over summer vacation. He mastered algebra when he was just twelve, and calculus when he was fifteen.
True. But he was a high school dropout.
Well, he got into college anyway.
Yeah, but when he applied to college, he flunked the sections on literature, zoology, botany, and politics.
Thats also true, but he passed the parts about math and science.
