Victor Godwin, a serious-minded boy genius living in Philadelphia, discovers that Ben Franklin never died – he was put into suspended animation, and was hidden away for more than 200 years in Victor’s basement! An accident re-awakens Ben centuries before he was supposed to be, and there’s a problem – when Ben runs low on energy, he turns into a rampaging monster desperately hungry for electricity! All this while Victor is trying to take first place in the school science fair. But with one of history’s preeminent scientists helping out, what could go wrong?“Victor is one of the funniest nerds in children’s literature.” – School Library Journal“A welcome diversion to pass the hours between scoring science-fair ribbons and exploding . . . home chemistry sets.” – Booklist
Matthew McElligott lives in Albany, New York.
