My daughter loves these books, and I don‘t mind them so much myself. They teach history and good lessons for kids. This was our latest read out loud- we picked it up in Gettysburg this weekend.

I am starting my collection of these gems 😍 I think it‘s a great addition to any classroom library! So cute!

Abraham Lincoln was a great role model that children all over the world can now learn many lessons from. Lincoln was a wise, kind and compassionate person that cared for the well-being of others.

“In life, strength can take many forms. But there‘s nothing quite as strong as standing up for someone who needs it.”

Genre: Biography
This book tells the story of Abraham Lincoln, starting out when he was a young boy. It depicts many inside details of him: how smart he was as a child, how he loved to read, and just how wise he was at such a young age. The book goes on to tell other milestones in his life as an adult, such as when he helped pass the law to end slavery and ended the civil war.

This cute little B book is great for RA during President‘s Day week or when the Civil War gets introduced to the class. My favorite lines from the book is “Sometimes, the hardest fights don‘t reveal a winner- but they do reveal character. Especially when you‘re fighting for something you believe in” and “All men are created equal.”

Love when the little guy crawls up into my lap with a book in his hand!

Tonight it's Abraham Lincoln. She loves learning about American presidents. Of late, a daily saying has been 'what has Trump the dump been up to today?' 😂

One of the things I like most about these books, are the pictures in the back that show the subject in real life. Usually accompanied by an actual quote from that person.
