From School Library Journal
Grade 7–10—This interesting, informative biography of the scientist and Nobel Prize winner explores both Curie's personal and professional life. It includes numerous archival and modern photos and reproductions. The writing is awkward at times, and there are some omissions; the scientific definitions tend to be difficult, aimed at older students. The source notes confusingly use abbreviated titles (for example, MCB for Madame Curie: A Biography instead of the more standard and efficient use of the author's surname). Still, the book is far more thorough and satisfying than most biographies of Curie for teens. Carla Killough McClafferty's Something Out of Nothing: Marie Curie and Radium (Farrar, 2006) is the only other title that can be recommended.—Ann W. Moore, Schenectady County Public Library, NY
