Benjamin Franklin

Hey everybody! I just finished reading Ben Franklin's Autobiography. You have to read this! What an amazing testimony to self-reliance. The man was brilliant and taught himself from books he read (and there wasn't the local library or amazon.com), all while he worked to keep himself alive.  What amazed me most was his determination. His reputation among his fellow man was so important to him. He regretted every mistake he felt he made and tried his best to make amends each time. He listened to others when they found fault in him and tried to fix those faults. He also spent his entire life trying to make the world better, not just in his own back yard but everywhere. You have to read this book if you are homeschooler.
