*Starred Review. Edison is a beautiful and inspiring tale about two tiny creatures who refuse to belittle themselves by accepting the limits of "Never!" and who are awarded with history-shaping truth for their efforts. --Michelle Anne Schingler "Foreword Reviews"
As in Kuhlmann's Armstrong (2016) and Lindbergh (2014), the journey turns out to be at least as rewarding as the prize. -- "Kirkus Reviews"
