"This book will probably be considered primarily in connection with its illustrations, but its true distinction ... lies in the high standard it sets in the field of biography for children under ten. It is a rounded and well-proportioned outline of Lincoln's life which the d'Aulaires have given us, in an easy-running text unclouded by sentimentality." - The New York Times

I quite agree, as the narrative is high quality and the illustrations a delight. Definitely a go-to-book for children under ten who are wanting to learn about Lincoln!

Ages: 5 - 10

Cleanliness: nothing to note.

**Like my reviews? Then you should follow me! Because I have hundreds more just like this one. With each review, I provide a Cleanliness Report, mentioning any objectionable content I come across so that parents and/or conscientious readers (like me) can determine beforehand whether they want to read a book or not. Content surprises are super annoying, especially when you’re 100+ pages in, so here’s my attempt to help you avoid that!
