Tara, I thank you very much for the manner in which you write. You make the most mundane seem to be the most important and you surprise me with new facts, daily. Today's story of young Benjamin Franklin is very intriguing and I can hardly wait for the next installment about his life.

Of course we all know of Benjamin Franklin but, you find and present the interesting details that make me feel as though I knew the man.

For example, I didn't know why Franklin became a printer or that he didn't complete his apprenticeship with his brother.

Thank you Tara for another intriguing episode.

I love Franklin's life story. It's a look into the times he was born into as well as understanding the genius he developed over his life. Thanks for this, Tara.
