Einstein's Compass: Review Poem

by Betty Jo Tucker — Read all 96 poems by Betty Jo Tucker


EINSTEIN’S COMPASS: A YA TIME TRAVELER ADVENTURE is co-written by Grace Blair and Laren Bright. Below is my review poem about their terrific book.





Monday, December 3, 2018


Poem Artwork

 

Thrilling to read this story told

with such suspense. It’s very bold.

Albert Einstein and time travel

put us under a wondrous spell.

 

Albert ponders light, time and space.

Was he born in another place?

A compass gift becomes the key

to unlocking this mystery.

 

The authors earn our cheers and praise

for mystical themes that they raise

and for their most exciting book.

You really should give it a look.

 

I hope it will be a movie.

It’s one that I would like to see.

Great scenes jump off of every page.

This film could be box-office rage!

So far, even with Einstein, there is no proof of a way to travel in time, except in fiction. But it sure is a fun exercise that writers have been doing ever since the Time Machine was written.

I just started watching Outlander, going back to the first episode in 2014 where a British woman is second honeymooning in Scotland and is transported back 200 years by a magical Druid rock. So far a fascinating and captivating story. More for the accurate depiction of 1734 Highlands life than the trickery of time travel. She is a Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's court.

Based on your poem and the way it raves about the book, I believe that story is also a fun read and may be made into a movie thanks to your review.

Perhaps it could be, Betty. Enjoyed your review. Did an essay on Einstein in college. Loved studying about him. I quote Einstein (in my work) more than anyone else. Peace... rlc
