Landon Holik, right, describes his invention, the Leg Lifter, for Cynthia Durrett during the Third Grade Invention Convention on Friday at Brook Hill School in Bullard. Students learned about inventors throughout history before taking to the drawing board and flexing their creative muscles to come up with their own inventions. Landon said he studies the work of British inventor Sir William Mills, who built the first effective hand grenade for use in World War I. Photo by Andrew D. Brosig/Tyler Morning Telegraph
