Both my kids loved this book, it contains oodles of little known facts about the 16th President of the United State. Each page is a letter of the alphabet and includes 3-5 facts using the assigned letter. For example, H is for Hat-Lincoln, a tall man, wore a stovepipe hat, which made him look even taller. He used the hat to carry paperwork.
The combination of whimsical illustrations and fun facts made for a family favorite in our house!
