Description
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.
Advance Praise
“Alan Katz’s Lieographies series is sure to provide a lot of laughs for young readers, while introducing them to very important historical figures and encouraging them to find out more. Reading, laughing, and learning—what’s better than that?”
—Marc Summers, Host and Executive Producer of Nickelodeon’s Double Dare
