Review:
President Abraham Lincoln
has a life story that is simple yet inspiring. Basic yet colorful illustrations
take readers on a journey of his life. From the time he started school to the
point he and his family relocated to Indiana. Abraham loved animals and reading
books. He was also a very hard worker. He dug well and cut trees. He met and
married Mary Todd, a woman who had come from a wealthy family.
Abraham was elected to the
United States Congress in Washington when he was thirty-seven years old. It was
then that his fight for slavery began. In 1860 he was fifty-one when he was
elected as President of the United States. During his presidency he declared
that all slaves should be free, thus the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 was
signed. Abraham Lincoln's life was happy after the war until his death at a play
one evening.

Lincoln. Parents, teachers and young readers will be informed and inspired by
