One day in 1882, Thomas Edison flipped a switch that lit up lower Manhattan with incandescent light and changed the way people live ever after. The electric light bulb was only one of thousands of Edison’s inventions, which include the phonograph and the kinetoscope, an early precursor to the movie camera. As a boy, observing a robin catch a worm and then take flight, he fed a playmate a mixture of worms and water to see if she could fly! An accessible, appealing biography of the inventor.

Years later, scientists learned more about how compasses work and found out that Columbus was right.

All the planes had life rafts on board. If the pilots had to land their planes in the ocean, wouldn’t at least some of the pilots have survived? For weeks, the navy searched a wide area of the sea. They never found a single thing—not even a piece of a broken plane floating in the water. Even now, more than seventy years later, the story makes people wonder whether there is something strange and unusual about the area the planes were flying through. The Bermuda Triangle is in between Miami, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda. It has had 5 airplanes in a day disappear and 20 airplanes in all. There have been over 100 ships disappear in the Bermuda triangle. The book says that all the disappearances are most likely Coincidence. Also the weather is very bad in the triangle so it's easy to crash a plane and there heavy so the sink to the bottom fast without a trace.

Or was it just, "Hi, I hope you're not as down on me as your sister is and, by the way, could you be careful not to spill anything, either"? But none of those sounded right. Finally I had to admit that he might have just been trying to say hello. Call me crazy, but it could be true!”
