My hero is Thomas Edison who was a great inventor. He not only was one of the greatest inventors, but he created more inventions than any other inventor.
Thomas Edison was very inventive.Two of his inventions were the light bulb and the phonograph.Can you imagine what would happened if we did not have these inventions? Without the light bulb, I could not play inside,go to the garage at night,climb up the stairs without falling, read a book at night, or find anything in the dark.I really like to listen to music, and I feel that people a long time ago enjoyed music more because of the invention of the phonograph.
Thomas Edison was incrediblely smart. He taught himself how to read. His favorite books to to read were chemistry books.Also, he was a very good observer and studied anything electrical. Edison was always exploring and experimenting.
I am very proud of my hero. His work has inspired me to become an inventor. Written by Joshua Stepnoski,Pinehust Elementary School,third grade student,Whispering Pines, North Carolina
