review:
'On the History Trail with Ariane and Nino: 1. Albert Einstein' by Fabrice Erre with art by Sylvain Savoia is a graphic novel for younger readers introducing them to a great scientist.
When young Nino is struggling with his science homework, his sister Fabrice decides to take him on a journey to meet a great scientist and discover his life. We meet Einstein as a young scientist and follow him through his greatest theories. Along the way he moves countries, becomes a pacifist, fights for a new home in Israel, and sees his science used to make weapons of mass destruction. The book finishes with an article about Einstein's early theories that he made in his first marriage. There are also short bios of other scientists of the era and a timeline.
This graphic novel was a lot of fun. I really liked that all the words Einstein speaks in the story were acutally his. The art is good, and I think this is a good introduction the life and major ideas of this scientist.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
