Paperback. Zustand: Good. A story of remarkable determination and ingenuity. We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing must be attained. -- Marie Curie Manya's Dream introduces young readers to the fascinating story of Marie Curie's (born Manya Sklodowska) life and to her exceptional achievements in the realm of science -- including winning not one, but two Nobel Prizes.
