I have invented robots which improve the work of cars. My love of making things began when 1 was a kid. I really became excited about inventing after I learned about Thomas Edison.
One day in the fourth grade, our1gave us a project in class. We had to write to a company and learn about the products. I thought and thought.2I chose the Thomas A. Edison Company. Soon after, the company sent me a book about the life of Thomas Edison. How I enjoyed reading and re-reading about his3! I like the recorder and the electric light most. The inventions were clearly printed in my brain.
My dad noticed my interest in inventing and4me. He showed me how to turn my ideas into plans and then into new things. Once, I surprised my dad with a model plane I made. Later, we found a5model plane in a store. I learned that different inventors often invent similar things. It is not unusual for this to happen. I also learned that not all great ideas6.Failure is a7part of the inventing.
As my father and I worked together. I began to realise that my dad was quite an inventor himself. He was always looking for a better way to do a simple job. His guiding hands, together with my8in inventing. led me to become an engineer and an inventor of course, I also thank Thomas Edison. He is my hero.
