"He invented bifocals. He wrote "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." He started America's first lending library. He charmed lightning . and ladies. And he asked himself each morning, What good shall I do today?" How Ben Franklin answered that question - through his work as a writer, printer, statesman, and inventor - forever established him as one of America's greatest figures. On one day in 1729 he published the first edition of the Pennsylvania Gazette; on another day he changed the Declaration of Independence by adding the famous words, "We hold these truths to be self-evident"; and it was all in a day's work when he planted the first willow trees in America. Modeled on his own Poor Richard's Almanack, this unique scrapbook captures Franklin's countless accomplishments. Biography and anecdote, cartoon and etching mesh to create a fascinating portrait of this most fascinating man. Anyone interested in the birth of American democracy . or curious about the rise of the U.S. postal system . or wondering how paper money came to be . or wanting to know how Ben Franklin was part of it all is sure to pore over Ben Franklin's Almanac." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Candace Fleming's unique portrait of Benjamin Franklin is a beautiful quilt of a book. Each chunk of information, like a square in a quilt, adds its own bit of interest and color. Stitched together, the individual segments create a vivid overall impression of this many-sided man." - James Cross Giblin, author of The Amazing Life of Benjamin Franklin. "This is a wonderful book that will pull everyone into the extraordinary universe that is the mind and imagination of Ben Franklin. Here, the past is not 'was' but 'is'. " - Ken Burns "Ben Franklin's Almanac by Candace Fleming gives us everything we would ever want to know about America's favorite genius. Its pleasing look and innovative style will attract readers of all ages. Most important, though, I imagine it would greatly delight Ben himself." - Mary Pope Osborne, author of The Many Lives of Ben Franklin. Signed by Author(s).
