BR 2-15: THOMAS EDISON

I read a book today and the title of the book is THOMAS EDISON. I think that everyone has heard his name. I have also heard his name, because he is a great inventor. He invented a lot of things. We often use his inventions. However I don’t know about him, so I wanted to know about his, so I read this book.

In this book there were lots of surprises. The most surprising information is about his childhood. “When he was 14 years old, he began his own newspaper. He made the newspaper on one of the trains he worked on” (Carmel, 2007, p.9). He is really smart. I never make the newspaper, but he made. And that he was 14 years old. He must have had a lot of knowledge.

This book explains about Edison’s life. He didn’t go to school, but he made a lot of inventions. Recently there are a lot of hikikomori in the world, so if they don’t go to school, they could do something like Edison. His inventions gave us a lot of foresight. I want to be like him. If you are interested in this book, please read. You can find new way.
