Although no schools, small Edison showed a profound nature curious and always wanted to try. Before reaching school age he had dissected the animals, not to torture the animals, but purely driven by a great curiosity. At the age of eleven years of Edison built a simple chemical laboratory in the basement of his father's home. A year later he managed to make a telegraph that despite its primitive but it works.
Of course, experiments that do require a sizable fee. To meet the needs that, at the age of twelve years Edison worked as a seller of newspapers and candy on the train that runs between the city of Port Huron and Detroit. In order to spare time on the train was not wasted Edison asked for permission to the railroad company, "Grand Trunk Railway", to create a small laboratory in one of the railway carriage. It was there that she experimented and read the literature when it was not on duty.
