Paperback “Abe Lincoln Gets His Chance” by Frances Cavanah Illustrated by Don Sibley Published by Scholastic Book Services, copyright by Rand McNally & Co. 8th edition 1975 124 pages Original Description: “The time is February 12, 1809. The place is a small log cabin in Kentucky. Dennis looks down at the new baby. ‘Cousin Nancy,’ he says, ‘will Abe ever grow to be as big as me?’ ‘Bigger than you are now, Dennis’ the baby's mother tells him. She looks down at her son. ‘Abe Lincoln,’ she whispers. ‘You're going to grow - and grow - and grow!’” Note from author: “In writing this story of Abraham Lincoln, the author depended primarily on Lincoln's own statements and on the statements of his family and friends who had firsthand knowledge of his everyday life. In instances when dialogue had to be imagined, the conversation might logically have taken place in the light of known circumstances. Such descriptive details as were necessarily added were based on authentic accounts of pioneer times.” Books make a great add-on to a bundle.
