Meet Ben Franklin with Elaine Landau

(4) 4-6 Explore Colonial America with Elaine Landau series. Although the breadth of Franklin's interests and experiences makes him hard to capture in a short biography, Landau's volume strives to recognize at least in passing his work and accomplishments as a printer, inventor, father, diplomat, statesman, and patriot. The time-travel framing device is gratuitous, but reproductions of early American documents along with colorful pictures, cartoons, and maps add appeal. Reading list, timeline, websites. Glos., ind.
