Sample Chapter:
Unboring American Revolution for Kids: Chapter 6 - Famous Faces: Washington, Franklin, and Friends
Close your eyes and picture yourself at a large dinner party. At one end of the table is George Washington in his military uniform, tall, solemn, and presumably wishing that the mashed potatoes had been arranged in neat rows. Opposite him is Benjamin Franklin, who jokes and wears glasses, as well as a ridiculous fur hat. Beside them is John Adams, who was grumpy and bright, writing notes on pieces of paper.
They were not the casual dinner-guests, just like you saw in Chapter 4 when leaders clashed over how to fight the British-they were the chiefs of a Revolution. The army was under Washington. Franklin flattered European kings and queens to send money and armies. Adams was very passionate in Congress to consider independence. They formed the future of a whole nation.
Naturally, they were not ideal. Washington had iron teeth (that is, metal, ivory, and a small amount of hippo tusk). Franklin at one point attempted to electrocute a turkey with electricity (spoiler: it did not work out) and then with lightning (spoiler: it did not work out). And Adams? He was so obstinate that his friends would refer to him as cranky. But without their brains, daring, and even strange conduct, the Revolution could not have had a chance, as we'll see again in Chapter 8 when Jefferson's words help launch a brand-new nation.
