This book is definitely an easy read and students of very young ages would be abel to follow along. The book tells the story of Abraham Lincoln and includes illustrations of actual historical pictures. It shows him as a child, to working as a shop keeper, to becoming a lawyer, and to becoming president. The book gives dates and helpful background knowledge for students incase they do not understand a word in the book. It even goes so far to put the pronunciation of some words. Overall a great book for younger grades, as a sort of introduction of biographies. ( ) Abraham Lincoln "Honest Abe" was the sixteenth president of the United States and was the reason slavery became illegal. In 1863 he signed the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing all the people enslaved. Some people, especially people from the South, were angry with Lincoln because of this. In 1865, he was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth in a theatre. Lincoln did what he believed what was right and helped the United States on its way to becoming a free country. This is a decent book for beginning readers and teaching about writing biographies, however I think it is lacking in content. It promotes misconceptions as well. For example, it states that the Emancipation Proclamation freed all the slaves, in reality it only freed the slaves in the Confederacy. It merely states that the civil war happened between the North and South, but gave no reasons. A book can be accessible for young readers without being dumbed down to the extent this book is. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
