Benjamin Franklin was born in 1706 in Boston, Massachusetts. He was the fifteenth child out of seventeen and was the tenth son.
He went to business school from age eight to ten. Then he went to work for his father as a soap maker. He didn’t enjoy it, and went to work for his brother as a printing press instead. Benjamin had many other careers in his life he was a printer, author, diplomat, philosopher, inventor and a scientist.
Benjamin had many inventions that improved our live such as the first library, the Franklin stove, and the first volunteer fire fighter company. All of these inventions we still use today. The library we use to take out books for free and return them on time. We use the Franklin stove to cook our food. And we have a volunteer Fire Department to take out the fires. Benjamin Franklin was a great inventor
