Did you know that Bell's amazing invention--the telephone--stemmed from his work on teaching the deaf? Both his mother and wife were deaf. Or, did you know that in later years he refused to have a telephone in his study? Bell's story will fascinate young readers interested in the early history of modern technology! Review: Great book in perfect condition. - Love it Review: Very Informative - My 3rd grade son, Alex, had to do a book report on a nonfiction book. He chose this book because they share the same first name. My son struggles with reading, but his teacher really wanted him to try to read a book that was grade level appropriate, and this book fit that criteria. This book was very difficult for him, and he would not have made it through the book on his own. He read the entire book out loud, to me. We did one chapter per day for 10 days, and we were done. There was a lot of information in the book that was not only new to my son, but to me as well. I have now purchased several other "Who Was" books for my children. My 6th grader is the most interested in these books. She loves to read nonfiction. The reading level is probably too easy for her, but she enjoys them anyway, and she is learning about famous people in history!

"Who Was Alexander Graham Bell" Talks about, well, Alexander Graham Bell.It says some things you might not know about this guy. The telephone is a big part in this book, but also talks about things like how he helped Helen Keller, about how he almost saved president Garfield, and how he attempted to create flying things( @$ In Airplanes). In short, a very informational book, reallÿ enjoyed it.I definitely recommend this book.
