Short. Read like a long newspaper article or high school essay. Still interesting if you enjoy stories about Lincoln. Could be incorporated into a lesson plan for middle school.

A super quick read, giving a little insight into the man, rather than the president.

Lincoln's Little Girl by Cecelia Holland is a short article about Julia Taft, the daughter of friends of Lincoln's. Julia visited the house often to visit with both Abe and Mary as well as their boys Willie and Tad. Holland's article gives us a glimpse of the fun side of the Lincoln's and about their life outside of politics (and inside too). Gleaning information from Julia's own writings/memoir, as well as other close friends, Lincoln's Little Girl is worth the read.

A perfect short book to read on a rainy Saturday morning like today. Insightful, interesting, and sad. It makes me want to read Julia Taft's memoir.
