5.0 out of 5 stars The best Edison story book for kids, March 28, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Thomas Alva Edison : Young Inventor (Easy Biographies) (Paperback)

I looked for the best Edison story book for a kid who is attending ESL (English as the second language) class to learn his third language (Chinese, French and English). I found too many books on Edison. I didn't find any good one until I saw this book. After I read it over in bookstore, I bought it. I like it and the kid likes it. Now I will ask Edison Museum if it has this book. If not, I will buy one and donate it for the museum. It is the best Edison story book for all kids.

I actually borrowed this book from the library then bought it for a young man in my class who reminds me so much of Young Thomas Edison.

I love the way the book portrays Edison's inquisitiveness and how his parents supported him in his adventures.

This is a must-read for the parents of any student who "asks too many questions" and "can't sit still" in class. Read, learn, and be encouraged. (And check out [...]).
