Thomas Edison, world-class inventor. You might know that he devised the
electric light bulb and the phonograph. But what about his development
of train-controlling sticks? Or his airborne way to send pancakes to his
Cousin Fran in Texas? You're about to be treated to the Lieographical
aspects of Thomas Edison's life, in this funny, lighthearted, "all that
didn't happen" take on the man whose inventions transformed our daily
existence.
The book ends with a short--but true--account of Edison's life--just
enough to encourage kids to find out more on this important historical
figure. But even if readers have already learned about Edison, the wacky
stories in this tall-tales book will be even more enjoyable.
