Little Jack Thomson's Magnificent Brain: Storybook Walk Edition
an uplifting story of personal triumph... Jack Thomson, a gifted, young boy who dreams of flying rockets to Neptune and building trains between planets is unaware of how truly intelligent he is. Truth be told, he’s convinced he is slow because he can’t read and write like everyone else he knows. After one awful day at school, Jack’s mother comforts him by relating some inspiring stories of history’s greatest minds and how they overcame learning disabilities and made a difference. As Jack listens, his spirits lift as he recognizes that someday he, too, can do something magnificent. In addition to the story, the Storybook Walk Edition has activity and discussion questions on each spread as well as a few info boxes with historical facts about Thomas Edison, Agatha Christie, and Albert Einstein.
