Product Details
From the back cover: "Unable to hear, Thomas Edison seemed unlikely to become one of America's greatest inventors, but he wasn't about to let a minor obstacle stop him. As a young man he invented the phonograph, the incandescent light, and motion pictures, to name but three of his many important inventions. Follow Thomas Edison's life—from losing his sense of hearing to losing his hard-earned fortune, all while making the world a better place in which to live—in this intriguing biography by Newbery Honor author Sterling North."
