ben franklin is best known for the almanack.

in the war when the brtish fought against france. ben was in the council that said the tax's were to large to pay for the war! i think...that it was a hardship because it was unfair if the war was expensive.

ben had to convince the british leaders colony to give pennsylvanians more freedom. ben failed his first time but did not give up trying.he also tried to stop something called the stamp act.the stamp act is a tax when you buy a stamp you have to pay a tax.i think...ben could stop the stamp act and get freedom if he never gave up.

he would help citizen no matter what the ocassion.i think... he was nice,really nice to other people when they needed it.he was looking for compassion in people.

when ben got back to pennsylvania. he made a club called junto. juno tried to make the country a better place,by talking about politics and made the first public library.i think... he saw that when people needed help they didn't get it.

when ben got to london he had to convince the british leaders to give them more freedom and he failed the first time,mistake right?i think...he was sad that he failed,but he learned and made it better.

as a young man, ben played a trick on his brother, james. ben wrote articles under the name of Silence dogood. the articles were mostly on politics and religion.i think... it was creative using silence dogood because it was an original name. it was risk taking because the british were watching the paper and he could get arrested.

ben was brave when he went to talk to the british leaders. i think...BEING BRAVE FOR BEN WAS NOTHING.
