{"product_id":"9781580897211","title":"Alexander Graham Bell Answers the Call","description":"Well  before Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone, Aleck (as his  family called him) was a curious boy, interested in how and why he was  able to hear the world all around him. His father was a speech therapist  who invented the Visible Alphabet and his mother was hearing impaired, which only made Aleck even more  fascinated by sound vibration and modes of communication. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNaturally inquisitive and inclined to test his knowledge, young Aleck was the perfect person to grow up in the Age of Invention. As a kid he toyed with sound vibrations and began a life of inventing. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis in-depth look at the life and inspiration of the brilliant man who invented the tele-phone is sure to fire up the imaginations of young readers who question why and how things work. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDriven by  curiosity and an eagerness to help others, Aleck became a teacher for  the deaf. His eventual invention of the telephone proved that he never  stopped thinking big or experimenting with sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBackmatter includes more information about Bell’s inventions, a timeline of his life, a bibliography, and sources for further learning.","brand":"Mary Ann Fraser","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":47794175508692,"sku":"9781580897211","price":21.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/9208\/files\/BNCImageAPI_0c00ce44-5cc4-4eb9-b2a4-b21785b35434.jpg?v=1776182323","url":"https:\/\/penguinshop.ca\/products\/9781580897211","provider":"Penguin Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
