Book Overview

This classic tale from Newbery- and Caldecott-winning author and illustrator Robert Lawson tells the story of a little mouse--and his good friend, American icon Ben Franklin.

Did you ever wonder where inventors get their ideas? Benjamin Franklin is one of the most famous inventors in American history, and according to this amusing book, he got most of his ideas--the good ones at any rate--from a mouse!

Funny, interesting, and wise, Ben and Me is a timeless American story that has been read by generations of young people. Once you've met Amos the mouse, you'll always remember Benjamin Franklin a little differently than the history books do.

This beautiful edition of award-winning author Robert Lawson's well-loved tale features bonus material, including a map of Ben Franklin's travels!

The perfect book to celebrate America's 250th birthday!
