known as a natural philosopher instead of a scientist, he became famous all around the
world. Isaac is " secretive, withdrawn, obsessive, ruthless, bitter, and perhaps in need of
therapy, All of these things apply to Isaac Newton.(pg.13) It's not his fault though when
he was just a baby his father died so he never knew his father. Also his mother deserted
him when he was eight years old, he wasn't even expected to make it because he was
abnormally small when he was a newborn, but Isaac was a fighter.(pg.14) Isaac Newton
lived with his grandparents for eight years, he had a lonely childhood, he had three half
siblings, but he hated them all he wanted …show more content…
17) All he wanted to do
was read his books and think, Isaac was very religious and that's all that was the genre
of books he read just religious books. Isaac liked his books so much he even built
shelves from wood he was good at building things. When he was born civil war
happened and it lasted for eleven years, then King Charles the 1st got beheaded, then
King Charles the 2nd came to power. Some puritans left for the American colonies
during the civil war.(pg.15) Newton got into science when he was twelve and he loved

anyone's help.
I like how Newton stands up for himself and doesn't take anyone's crap, Newton
spends a lot of his time thinking, that's really all he did he figured out how the colors
came to be. "light is all colors if you were to look at the sky you would say the sun is
giving off light which is white which makes colors, if it was dark what colors would you

light. After reading this book it made me think just like Isaac Newton did all the time.
I recommend this book, it was a great book I enjoyed reading it. I enjoyed
reading it because you got to learn about one of the most important people on the
planet. Without Isaac Newton where would we be today, lots of things wouldn't
