 “I want to put a ding in the universe.” 

― Steve Jobs

It was a rainy day in the city of San Francisco. Paul Jobs 

and his wife Clara Jobs was trying to enjoy each others 

company with a bottle of wine and smooth jazz music, when 

they were suddenly interrupted by the ring of their door 

bell. Paul got up to see who it is, but when he opened the 

door no one was there. Paul poke his head out of the front 

door and looked left to right but there was no one. "The 

rain is cascading down like a waterfall, who would pick a 

time like this to play the game of ding-dong ditch?" Paul 

asked himself. Just when Paul was about to close his front 

door, something moved on the bottom step of his porch and 

caught his attention.

Paul hurry down the the steps to see what it was that moved. 

Paul was in shock when he saw a basket on the bottom step of his 

porch, he rushed to pick up the basket and took it inside and 

shut the door behind him. "Honey, come here for a second, look 

what I founded!" Scream Paul while trying to dry himself off. 

"My god, you just can't let me have a relaxing moment can you 

Paul?" Asked Clara as she walks over to the front door. Paul 

pulled off the blanket covering the basket and was even more 

shocked from what he saw inside.

When Clara looked inside the 

basket she was as shocked as 

a bird landing on a live 

wire. "Who in the world 

would put a baby in the 

rain?" Asked Clara, almost 

bursting out in tears. Clara 

went and picked up the baby 

and held it tight like it 

was her own. Paul and Clara 

passed out flyers and did 

everything they could to 

find the baby's real parents 

but there was no luck. As 

the days past the 

relationship between the 

baby and Clara grew stronger 

and stronger. It was not 

long after before Paul and 

Clara decided to adopt this 

baby to be their own.

Paul and Clara decided to name their baby Steve Jobs. Seven 

years flew by in a blink of an eye. The Jobs family moved from 

San Francisco to Mountain View, California when Steve was only 

five years old. Paul and Clara later adopted a daughter, Patty. 

Paul taught Steve how to work with simple machines and how to 

work with his hands. while on the other hand, Clara taught Steve 

how to read and write before he even went to school.  

The very first 

Apple computer was 

built in that 

garage. 

As the years pass, Steve fell in love with working with machines. 

Steve attended Cupertino Junior High and Homestead High School in 

Cupertino, California.   Steve became friends with a   boy named 

Bill Fernandez, a neighbor who shared the same interests in 

electronics as him. Bill soon introduced Steve to a much older 

electronics geek named Steve Wozniak. The three of them became 

bestfriends ever since. 

A big reason why 

Steve fell in 

love with 

computers was 

because of the 

electronics club 

they had at their 

school.
