When Benjamin Franklin was a boy he wanted to be a sailor, but his father would not hear of such a thing. He tried other careers but they thoroughly bored him. He learned something from every failed career and that is what made him into the inventive and inspiring man he became. I would recommend this for any collection as an introduction biography about Benjamin Franklin. The illustrations are well thought out and you can almost feel the emotion of young Benjamin.

"Young Benjamin Franklin wants to be a sailor, but his father won't hear of it. The other trades he tries -- candle maker, joiner, boot closer, turner -- bore him through and through. Curious and inventive, Ben prefers to read, swim, fly his kite, and fly his kite while swimming. But each time he fails to find a profession, he takes some important bit of knowledge with him. That tendency is exactly what leads him to become the astonishingly versatile genius we remember today. Inspired by The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, Michael J. Rosen's wry tale captures Ben's spirit in evocative yet playful language. A love story to the value of variety, A Ben of All Trades sheds light on an unconventional path to greatness and humanizes a towering figure in American history."-- Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
