Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin was a founding father of the United States, who was also an author, inventor, scientist, and more. He has been referenced on the Arthur series:
 * In "Arthur's Spelling Trubble," Arthur poses the question as to whether people get nervous when they know they have to do something really important to them. To demonstrate this question, a fantasy type sequence is shown of Arthur as Benjamin Franklin flying a kite with a key on it in order to discover electricity. Francine tries to stop him, and it appears that she may be his wife, Deborah Read Franklin.
