Caro Einstein--
Inspirado em um episódio real, ''Caro Einstein...'' narra como uma garota de sete anos enviou uma carta a um dos cientistas mais importantes de todos os tempos, na tentativa de ajudar sua irmã mais velha a passar de ano na escola. O livro mostra a sensibilidade de um verdadeiro mestre, capaz de transformar um complexo exercício em algo compreensível, até para alguém de quinze anos. Preocupada em aproximar o jovem leitor brasileiro do cientista, a Cosac Naify incluiu no livro um apêndice com fotos da visita de Einstein ao Rio de Janeiro (1925), além de indicações bibliográficas para quem quiser se aprofundar no tema. A edição, traduzida por Marco Moriconi, físico especialista em Albert Einstein, tem orelha assinada por Alfredo Tolmasquim, diretor do Museu de Astronomia e Ciências Afins (MAST) do Rio de Janeiro. Versátil e instigante, ''Caro Einstein...'' é muito mais do que um livro de ciências - revela-se uma ótima ferramenta pedagógica ao estimular o desejo de conhecimento e a curiosidade das crianças.
