Paperback. Zustand: Good. A fun historic tale by Newbery Honor-winning author, Jean Fritz! No matter how busy he was, Ben Franklin always found time to try out new ideas: a remote-control lock (so he could lock his door without getting out of bed), a rocking chair with a fan over it (to keep flies away), and a windmill (to turn his roast meat on its spit).

"This biography is distinguished by its humanizing detail [and] amusing tone." - School Library Journal. Margot Tomes (illustrator).…
