During the 1700s, Benjamin Franklin established himself as one of America's greatest citizens. After all, he was a printer and writer, a statesman and scientist, a humanitarian and inventor! Some people would even say he helped "invent" the United States! In Benjamin Franklin, kids will get an up-close look at the life and times of this prolific Founding Father. From his early years in Boston to the famous experiments with electricity and his globe-trotting negotiations during the Revolutionary War, kids will examine why our country is a better place because of his legendary contributions. Part of the multivolume Great Americans for Children Video Series. Includes a Teacher's Guide.

 

"The videos will both inform and entertain youngsters…All the videos offer information that will provide for lively and interesting discussion…These excellent productions will be useful for individual or group viewing and will circulate well in school and public libraries.- School Library Journal (April 2003)

"...snappily paced...Colorful maps, historic artwork, helpful captions, and memorable reenactments facilitate learning...recommended.."- Booklist (2/1/03)
