Abraham Lincoln: A Biography of Abraham Lincoln for 9-12-year-olds
Abraham Lincoln came from humble beginnings, the son of a Kentucky farmer. He didn't go to school much, but he was intelligent and had a love of reading and learning that would see him become a successful lawyer and politician.
On becoming President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln had to lead his country through the most difficult years in its history, as North and South fought each other in a bloody war over the issue of slavery.
After winning victory in the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln united the country once more and abolished slavery, before becoming the first American president to be assassinated.
Michael Grant brings you the story of Abraham Lincoln for kids aged 9-12, explaining why he is seen as one of America's greatest ever presidents - if not the greatest of all.
