    内容简介

    Ben Franklin was the scientist who, with the help of a kite, discovered that lightning is electricity. He was also a statesman, an inventor, a printer, and an author-a man of such amazingly varied talents that some people claimed he had magical powers! Full of all the details kids will want to know, the true story of Benjamin Franklin is by turns sad and funny, but always honest and awe-inspiring. Annotation A biography of the eighteenth-century printer, publisher, inventor, scientist, and statesman who played an influential role in the early history of the United States.

    作者简介

    The amazing award-winning author of nearly 300 non-fiction books for children and young adults, Dennis Fradin is known for his meticulous research, attention to detail and smooth, graceful writing.
    Fradin attributes his success in part to years of teaching in the Chicago Public Schools. In order to hold his second graders’ attention at the end of the day, he would spin stories about crayons in distress and birds with broken wings. One such story caught the attention of an editor who asked him to write a series of books about the United States. The SEA TO SHINING SEA series (Children's Press), launched Dennis's career as a full-time author.

    Dennis Fradin has written children's books on topics as varied as astronomy, colonial history, the Underground Railroad, slave escapes and scientific discoveries. He has written biographies of Thomas Jefferson, Samuel Adams, Jane Addams and Louis Braille, among others. BOUND FOR THE NORTH STAR is his riveting collection of true slave escape stories. THE POWER OF ONE: DAISY BATES AND THE LITTLE ROCK NINE, co-authored with his wife Judy, was a Golden Kite Honor Book.

    Dennis has collaborated with Larry Day on two picture books, LET IT BEGIN HERE! and DUEL! with Walker Books. He's completed two dozen TURNING POINTS books for Marshall Cavendish. Along with his wife Judy, Dennis wrote FIVE THOUSAND MILES TO FREEDOM for National Geographic Children's Books, followed by their WITNESS TO DISASTER series. Those books included VOLCANOES, HURRICANES, TSUNAMIS, EARTHQUAKES and DROUGHTS.

    The prolific Dennis Fradin is currently awaiting publication of several books, including a Walker picture book about Samuel Adams' role in the American revolution, one on Bald Eagles and another titled KIDS WHO OVERCAME about children who conquered disabilities.
