In "A Ben of All Trades," young Benjamin Franklin dreams of becoming a sailor, but his father has other plans for him. As he navigates various trades—from candle making to boot closing—he finds himself bored and yearning for adventure, preferring pursuits like reading and swimming. Each failed profession teaches him valuable lessons that ultimately contribute to his emergence as a multifaceted genius. Inspired by Franklin's own autobiography, Michael J. Rosen presents a playful and evocative narrative that celebrates the importance of variety on the path to greatness.
