Who was Alexander Graham Bell by Bonnie Bader

Alexander Graham Bell was a Scottish-born scientist, inventor, engineer, and innovator. Alexander was best known as the inventor of the telephone, worked at a school for the deaf while attempting to invent a machine that would transmit sound by electricity. After reading this book, I just found out that he was also a boy who gave himself a middle name, 'Graham' just before he was about to turn eleven. Alexander is one of the greatest inventors of all time because of his great inventions such as the telephone, metal detector, photo phone, tetrahedral kite, HD-4* and some other inventions.

*Hydrodome number 4 was an early research hydrofoil watercraft developed by the scientist Alexander Graham Bell.
