I liked Blast to the Past, Bell's Breakthrough. It's mostly about Alexander Graham Bell quitting inventing the telephone. Kids go back in time and try to convince him to invent the telephone. It was a little bit funny, like when there was a fire and then a kid said "call 911" but there was no telephone! I learned about Alexander Graham Bell. It was interesting because they said he might have stolen the idea of the telephone from some other inventor. I would recommend this book
I Love Blast to the Past!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! They did it again. This book rocked. What a great job the authors of Blast to the Past did. They made "Bell's Breakthrough" educational and exciting. Just think what would have happened if Alexander Graham Bell didn't invent the telephone? Life would be much different. I would recommend this book to everyone!
