Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein was an important person who changed the
world of science. People referred to him as a genius, and as
one of the smartest people in the world. Einstein devoted
himself to solving the mysteries of the world, and he changed
the way science is looked at today.
Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879, in Ulm,
Germany. Albert's speech was late in development; he didn't
start talking until he was about three. Since he started
talking late, his parents thought he was retarded. 'His
explanation was that he consciously skipped baby babbling,
waiting until he could speak in complete sentences'(Brian 1).
Einstein had a very bad temper when he was young; he got mad
and hit his sister Maja in the head with a garden hoe and
cracked her skull. When he was in school, his teachers thought
he was mentally retarded because he ignored whatever bored him
and attacked anything he had interest in.

his theories. He went around to different areas and gave
speeches and lectures. When he appeared at Union Station to
lecture, there was almost a riot because so many people wanted
to see him.
Einstein's most famous theory was the theory of
relativity. 'Einstein started his theory of relativity at the
age of sixteen' (Encyclopedia 511). He received the Nobel
prize for his famous theory. Another famous scientific theory
he discovered was E=MC2 (energy...
