At the same time on the Franklin statue's head, the leader of a tour group of young mice reveals the contributions of a mouse named Amos (also immortalized as a statue on Franklin's hat) to Franklin's career, reading from Amos' diary, titled <i>Ben and Me</i>. After describing the exploits of some of his ancestors, which includes one sailing on the <a href="/wiki/Mayflower" title="Mayflower">Mayflower</a> to come to America, Amos tells his own story. </p><p>The eldest of 26 siblings living in the <a href="/wiki/Christ_Church,_Philadelphia" title="Christ Church, Philadelphia">Christ Church, Philadelphia</a>, Amos sets out on his own in 1745 to find work and help his large family. Having no such luck, he takes shelter in Ben's shop from the bitter cold and snow and befriends the beleaguered printer, who is grave danger of having his press and all he owns repossessed by bill collectors. Amos invents <a href="/wiki/Bifocals" title="Bifocals">bifocals</a> for Ben from his two broken pairs of glasses, and inspires him to create the <a href="/wiki/Franklin_stove" title="Franklin stove">Franklin stove</a>. Amos also helps Ben turn his dry publication, <i><a href="/wiki/Poor_Richard%27s_Almanack" title="Poor Richard's Almanack">Poor Richard's Almanack</a></i>, into a successful newspaper, the <i><a href="/wiki/Pennsylvania_Gazette" class="mw-redirect" title="Pennsylvania Gazette">Pennsylvania Gazette</a></i>; Amos acts as journalist to gather good stories and helps Ben operate the <a href="/wiki/Printing_press" title="Printing press">printing press</a>. As the years pass, Amos helps Ben advance socially and build his reputation. </p><p>Unfortunately, Ben makes Amos an unwitting test subject in his experiments with <a href="/wiki/Electricity" title="Electricity">electricity</a>, culminating in him sending the mouse into the air as part of his <a href="/wiki/Kite_experiment" title="Kite experiment">kite experiment</a>. Amos is nearly killed when the kite is struck by lightning and crashes to the ground. Furious, he leaves Ben and moves back in with his family. </p><p>Years later, the early stages of the <a href="/wiki/American_Revolution" title="American Revolution">American Revolution</a> take place. Ben travels to <a href="/wiki/England" title="England">England</a> to try to reason with <a href="/wiki/George_III_of_the_United_Kingdom" class="mw-redirect" title="George III of the United Kingdom">the king</a> and persuade an end to the taxes, but this proves a failure. When Amos sees Ben returning in despondence, one part of him has pity and wants to help, while the other part still unforgiving. In 1776, Ben finds Amos' hole at the church and begs him for his help. Amos agrees on the condition that Ben sign a contract agreeing to his terms. As Ben is reading the contract, <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Jefferson" title="Thomas Jefferson">Thomas Jefferson</a> comes by, struggling with writing the introduction to the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Declaration_of_Independence" title="United States Declaration of Independence">United States Declaration of Independence</a>. The language in Amos' contract inspires Jefferson, and it becomes the Declaration's introduction. Amos accompanies Ben to the signing of the Declaration. The short ends with both tour groups stating how both man and mouse were truly great figures in American history. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Voice_cast">Voice cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ben_and_Me&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Voice cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Sterling_Holloway" title="Sterling Holloway">Sterling Holloway</a> as Amos Mouse</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Charlie_Ruggles" title="Charlie Ruggles">Charlie Ruggles</a> as <a href="/wiki/Benjamin_Franklin" title="Benjamin Franklin">Benjamin Franklin</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Stan_Freberg" title="Stan Freberg">Stan Freberg</a> as mouse guide</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Bill_Thompson_(voice_actor)" title="Bill Thompson (voice actor)">Bill Thompson</a> as <a href="/wiki/Sir_William_Keith,_4th_Baronet" title="Sir William Keith, 4th Baronet">Governor Keith</a>, and as the human tour guide</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Hans_Conried" title="Hans Conried">Hans Conried</a> as <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Jefferson" title="Thomas Jefferson">Thomas Jefferson</a>, and as a criminal</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Jimmy_MacDonald_(sound_effects_artist)" title="Jimmy MacDonald (sound effects artist)">Jimmy MacDonald</a> as miscellaneous men<sup id="cite_ref-CartoonVoices_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CartoonVoices-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Home_media">Home media</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ben_and_Me&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Home media"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The short was released on December 6, 2005, on <i><a href="/wiki/Walt_Disney_Treasures:_Wave_Five" title="Walt Disney Treasures: Wave Five">Walt Disney Treasures: Disney Rarities -
