Each of the ten books recounts highlights from the life of a political,creative, or cultural legend.

Adding to Deborah Hedstrom-Page’s unique lessons are illustrationsfrom Sergio Martinez (Max Lucado’s You Are Special). Each book alsocontains study questions and activity pages for every chapter. Thomas Edison (1847–1931) was a bright American inventor andbusinessman best-known for his patent of the light bulb. His story asretold here teaches readers about the core value of hope—expectinggood things to happen.
