Fortunately, Theo manages to save the day –along with the compass! The author’s husband was a personal friend of Albert Einstein’s. The lovely watercolors perfectly capture the atmosphere of the story and the text provides an insight into the mysteries of physics that inspired Einstein’s quest to understand the forces of nature. Shulamith Levey Oppenheim is the award-winning author of many books, including The Fish Prince, a collection of Mermen folktales, and The Sea King with Jane Yolen. She lives in Massachusetts. George Juhasz was born in Hungary in 1933, but left his country in 1956 to avoid the Soviet invasion. He has since lived in Switzerland and Montreal, and he currently resides in Vancouver. He has done numerous illustrations for children's books, animated a number of films, and created several public sculptures for Vancouver institutions.
