Overview

She was a girl who loved numbers. A wife who shared a dream. A widow who changed the world. This short, powerful book tells the true story of Marie Curie-from her poor childhood in Poland to her fight for education, her deep love with Pierre Curie, and the discoveries that changed science forever. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize. Then she won a second. But behind the awards were years of hunger, loss, hard work-and silence. She never gave up. Not when she was rejected. Not when they said a woman couldn't be a scientist. Not even when they threw stones at her door. Told in clear and moving language, this book is perfect for readers who want to know the real woman behind the legend.
