Publisher Description
The groundbreaking physicist and disability advocate is the 34th hero in this New York Times bestselling biography series for ages 5 to 9.
From a young age, Stephen Hawking had a strong sense of wonder and was full of questions about the world around him and the stars above. He would spend his whole life trying to figure out how the universe worked, including discovering truths about black holes and energy. And when he was diagnosed with a rare disease called ALS that destroys the nerve cells in the body, he would find his own mental energy to carry on with his studies even after his limbs and vocal chords stopped working. He became one of history's most influential scientists.
This friendly, fun biography series inspired the PBS Kids TV show Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum. One great role model at a time, these books encourage kids to dream big.
Included in each book are:
- A timeline of key events in the hero’s history
- Childhood moments that influenced the hero
- Facts that make great conversation-starters
- A virtue this person embodies: Stephen Hawking's perseverance and ability to defy boundaries is highlighted.
