Why this book
Marie Curie didn't chase fame-she chased the truth inside tiny things. She studied by lamplight, worked in a drafty shed, and turned discoveries into tools that helped people.
Along the way she won the world's highest honors and showed that courage isn't always loud; it's steady, careful, and kind. This story lets kids feel the wonder behind her work-and carry their own small lanterns of curiosity.
