Freedman, Russell Becoming Ben Franklin: How a Candle-Maker’s Son Helped Light the Flame of Liberty, 82p. Holiday House, 2013. $24.95. NON-FICTION. Content: G.
Russell Freedman turns his deft hand to the life of America’s premiere inventor and consummate statesman. It is a thorough, but accessible look at the man and his genius, with plenty of historical illustrations. There is plenty of information here of a well-researched report. I’m interested to see how the LExile on this book falls out for whether it is teachable at the appropriate level.
