Loading... Benjamin Franklin: An American Genius (Graphic Library: Graphic Biographies) (edition 2006)by Olson, Kay M., Schulz (Illustrator), Barbara (Illustrator), Purcell (Illustrator) — 1 more, Gordon (Illustrator)This book had both positives and negatives. On the positive side, this book is a comprehensive look at the life of Benjamin Franklin. The certain sections of his life are broken into easily digestible sections, which allow a young reader to not be overwhelmed by the information. Additionally, it goes through great efforts to show the importance of one of the most important Americans to have lived. On the downside, some of this material is a bit above the head of many children. Specifically, some of the science covered early in the book may deter students from continuing to read the book. That said, I believe that it is done in a small enough dose to keep many children’s attention. |
