BIOGRAPHIES
(4) 4-6 Each spread in this attractive volume highlights a proverb written--or reprinted--by Ben Franklin in his Poor Richard's Almanack. Extra-large type and ample white space make sayings like "Speak little, do much" pop right off the page. Unfortunately, the paragraphs that explain each aphorism and provide biographical details are in teeny-tiny fine print. Facing pages feature textured, woodcut-like drawings.
