![]() ![]() I already knew most of the things about Abraham Lincoln but it was good to re-read what I already knew since it has been a long time since I have heard about him. Tell about what they did, how old they were and if his wife Mary did anything or was she a housewife who raised the children. I would extend this book giving more information about his four children and his wife. I really liked how the author made this biography about Abraham and gave a quick synopsis of his life. ![]() The pictures in this book were very illustrative of the story. This was a very short story about a former president whom most people called "Honest Abe". He was then shot at a theater by an actor John Wilkes Booth who favored the south. Abraham later became present and many did not like that he was against slavery and later wrote the Emancipation Proclamation which declared all slaves in the Confederate states free. He fell in love and got married in 1942 to Mary Todd and had four sons. When Abraham started to study law, he became a lawyer and served in the Illinois legislature. When he traveled to New Orleans he saw a slave market for the first time and saw it was miserable. Then he moved to Illinois at the of 21 and helped his father build a new house and plant corn. ![]() His mom died when he was 9 years old and his father got remarried a year later. This was a book about Abraham Lincoln and his upbringing where he lived in a cabin in Kentucky and then Indiana with his sister and mom and dad. ![]()
