I bought this book for my students reading about the American Colonies and Revolution. I didn't feel that I knew enough about Ben Franklin and needed to learn more. My students were facinated about him because he was an inventor and did the experiment with the key and the kite to learn about electricity. I learned so much from this book that I had never known before and the readabilty level is perfect for my students. I can't wait to share this book with them!

I read this book to my kids and they were completely engaged from cover to cover. Wonderful information is packed into this entertaining book with great illustrations. This book inspired several discussions and projects in our house and we all agree it is a must have for any home library.

Great subject for a children book. I got this series of books for my daughter and she really enjoyes reading them. Great read and educational too.

I have a half class set of this book, along with others in the series. I use this as a class assigned book, and have found it to be an excellent way to start the year. The writing is engaging, entertaining and informative. We end each week's reading with a corner book talk which always proves lively and fun.

We ordered several Ben Franklin books for my niece's 4th grade project, but this one was her favorite and the only one she really needed. It has tons of info and is written in a way that's interesting for kids. Cute pictures, etc.

The book is an easy read, and kids would enjoy learning the bits of science and history included.
