Bound to Rise 
Henry Walton’s Motto

Benjamin Franklin is an influential figure, even to very young people. Young people like Henry, for example, who wish to help their families make it through rough financial times. This book, a coming-of-age novel to its core, follows Henry on his quest to save his family from a dishonourable man’s steep loan to them through hard work and thrift.
