The+awesome+recommendation+of+Thomas+Edison

Canton Middle School 3/16/10

Dear Award Committee, We are recommending Thomas Edison for the recommendation award. He invented the light bulb as you probably already know. When Thomas was little he got scarlet fever and that caused him to be deaf in one ear. If it had been discovered back then, he also would have had ADHD. His mother thought that it was a sign that he was very smart because he asked so many questions but his teacher did not like that. When Thomas Edison was young he loved to read and write poetry. In 1879 Thomas Edison created the very first incandescent light bulb. The second best reason we chose Thomas Edison was because of all of the other things that he invented. He invented the microphone, the telephone receiver, the stock ticker, the phonograph, movies, and office copiers. All of those things help us and or entertain us today and probably back then too. The third best reason why we chose to recommend Thomas Edison was because he came a long way since his childhood. He was a young kid that no one wanted to teach, then he became a famous inventor. Nobody really thought that he would amount to anything but he did. The best reason why we chose him was because he gave us light in a little bulb and without it we would still be using candles. He made one of the most used inventions in the world. It is also one of the most interesting inventions as far as how it works. He worked very hard on his invention and he did a very good job with it too. I would like to thank you for your time reading this letter. Once again, I think that Thomas Edison was one of the most incredible inventors ever and I’m glad I got to share this letter of recommendation with you.

Sincerely,

Mary Cooper Alexa Cook Megan Barrett
