I am not usually a fan of biographies (personally, I find them boring), but this one was very interesting. The pictures were colorful, and it also had a lot of useful information from Franklin's childhood all the way through his career and the later years of his life. This book is particularly interesting because it has little anecdotes about what daily life was like during the years that Ben Franklin was alive. This biography is definitely a good book for someone to read if they are interested in artists. (  ) amay3 | Nov 8, 2014 | no reviews | add a review

Ben Franklin was the scientist who, with the help of a kite, discovered that lightning is electricity. He was also a statesman, an inventor, a printer, and an author-a man of such amazingly varied talents that some people claimed he had magical powers! Full of all the details kids will want to know, the true story of Benjamin Franklin is by turns sad and funny, but always honest and awe-inspiring. No library descriptions found. |
