Abe Lincoln by Kay Winters5/23/2023 ![]() Teachers especially love the theme of Lincoln’s love for words, learning, and reading. Yes, slavery and civil war are mentioned in Lincoln’s lessons to first graders. ![]() It seems appropriate for our age… celebrating the man without going into areas that younger children don’t understand. His determination to learn and his perseverance in facing adversity made him the great man he became. There are also no mentions of slavery or the Civil War. It isn’t clear what Abraham Lincoln did after becoming President. Lincoln’s election as President FINISHES the book. The BULK section of the book is dedicated to Lincoln’s early years. ![]() ![]() This book is a story about Lincoln’s life, from his childhood in a tiny log cabin to his adult life as an attorney and president. It’s one of the four Lincoln books we read to our first and second grade classes every year around President’s Day. Abe Lincoln: The Boy who Loved Books is adorable and so kid friendly, early childhood educators will want it in their library. ![]()
