Before Marie Curie was the first woman in France to earn the highest degree in physics,
before she discovered two new radioactive elements,
and became the first woman to win a Nobel Prize (and then the first person to win two!)--
she was a little girl named Marie Sklodowska who dreamed of being a scientist--and was determined to make that dream come true.
This is an accessible and compelling homage to Marie Curie, whose life and legacy continue to inspire to this very day.
