Publisher's summary

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.

Excellent! Easy to understand and very thorough!

As a family, we truly enjoy listening to historical greats. it is really fin to learn their stories and have a little peek into what their lives may have been like. We love Ven Dranklin as he is one our favorites. This book tells his story well and is very engaging.
