Resumen del Editor

“Highly recommended for high school and ambitious middle school readers.” (School Library Journal)

"A valuable addition to STEM-themed collections." (VOYA)

An in-depth look into the extraordinary life of the world’s most important entrepreneur, Elon Musk

A fascinating and easily accessible young listeners’ adaptation of Ashlee Vance’s New York Times best-selling Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future.

The version for adults has been praised as “riveting” (The Financial Times), “spirited” (The Wall Street Journal), and “masterful” (Vice). Now younger listeners can hear about this innovative leader who is revolutionizing three industries at once: space, automotive, and energy.

There are few people in history who could match Elon Musk’s relentless drive and vision. A modern combination of famous inventors and industrialists like Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and Steve Jobs, Elon is the man behind companies such as SpaceX, Tesla Motors, SolarCity, and PayPal that are transforming the way we live.

With exclusive access to Elon, his family, and his friends, this book traces Elon’s journey from a kid in South Africa to a young man in the United States, his dramatic technical inventions, and his world-changing companies. Elon has sparked new levels of innovation in the world, and this book gives young listeners a detailed but fast-paced look at his story.

A Junior Library Guild Selection!

Fascinating portrait of an intriguing visionary

I read this book in order to be able to help a middle school student with his research project, and I'm so glad I did! What an amazing individual is Elon Musk! His life goes to show what enormous influence one person can have on society. As St. Catherine of Siena said, "Be who you were created to be, and you will set the world on fire."

Absolutely incredible at any age!

Absolutely loved going through the progression of the life of someone so ahead of the curve in so many ways!

Includes the sacrifices, risks and hardships that have been made and overcome along the way.

Excited to see how this exciting life that has only the goal of changing our world continues to move us into the future.

I'm an adult but got the Young Reader's Edition

Great book - I've always been an Elon Musk fan and get a chuckle at all the people who hate him. True - he's famous for missed deadlines, tyrannical behavior, narcissistic tendencies, grandiose promises, etc - but you can't argue his success in both SpaceX and Tesla. Just finished listening to "Elon Musk and The Quest for a Fantastic Future" (young readers edition) - a great and unbiased autobiography of his life so far. Love him or hate him - he's unquestionably a great innovator - and disruptor.

Awesome book!

I listened to this from start to finish while traveling and time really flew by. The things Elon achieved are awesome, but knowing all he had to go through makes it even more inspiring. The narrator also did a pretty good job, making this book easy to listen to.

Elon Musk and the quest for the fantastic future

I hope many people read this book. But I think this book should also have the stuff between Elon Musk and Twitter. Therefore, I give these stars. But overall, it was a kind of good. I hope you read it after reading this review.
