    Summary:

    Sure, almost all kids know Benjamin Franklin as one of America's Founding Fathers, a man with a hand in both the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution. Kathleen Krull reveals Ben Franklin the "natural philosopher" (the term for "scientist" back in the 1700s), a man whose experiments led to important discoveries about the nature of electricity, including his famous demonstration that electricity and lightning were one and the same.
