This is why you should read Blast to the past: Ben Franklin fame. There are 4 kids on an adventure to save Ben franklins fame. I think you should read Ben franklins fame because it has satisfactory details. You should read the book because most of the story takes place in 1776. This book is also great because it has good word choice. It’s also good because it has a problem Babes Magee is trying to steal Ben Franklins fame. It's great because the setting is always changing. If you like historical fiction you’ll love this book. If you read this book you’ll never be able to put it down its so good. I think you should read this book because it has satisfactory details. This is why I think you should read Blast to the past Ben Franklins fame.

Short and sweet. Tons of information on Ben Franklin. The kids travel in time to stop someone from changing Ben's fame. They must go back to his days as a printer to set his path correctly for the future of the United States.
