Summary: If You Grew Up With Abraham Lincoln
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book with my 7 year old son. The perspective that it gives, that is looking at what the past was like in real everyday terms, helped him to get a grasp of what kinds of advances there have been in 200 years. The language was appropriate for the age and the illustrations supported the text. This book could be used in many ways in a classroom or homeschool situation. I recommend it for anyone trying to convey the difference between past and present to a child.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you grew up with Abraham Lincoln by Jessie (homeschooled)
Review: If You Grew Up With Abraham Lincoln is written by Ann McGovern. This book is about Abe Lincoln's life on the frontier, in town , and in the city of Springfield, IN. It also talks about his election to the Presidency. When Abe was a boy he slept in a loft. Later in a village called New Salem, he opened a store. Then he worked as a lawyer in Springfield. When the year 1860 came, Abe found out he had been elected President! My favorite part of this book is when McGovern mentions that Abe slept on the counter in his store in New Salem. I give this book five stupendous stars!
