Abe Lincoln Crosses a Creek: A Tall, Thin Tale by Deborah Hopkinson

4.0

I loved the way the author told this story - the style the narrator talked in and talking to the illustrator. I liked that the author pointed out writing about historical events because you won't know every last detail. I'd never heard of Austin Gallaher before. I think it's fun for kids to think of Lincoln as a child not just as the tall older man we always see him as. Once Abe Lincoln was just a boy who didn't listen to his mother.
