The Story of Young Abraham Lincoln by Wayne Whipple is a biographical account of the early life of one of America's most beloved presidents. The book follows Lincoln from his humble beginnings in a log cabin in Kentucky, through his family's move to Indiana, and his eventual arrival in Illinois. Along the way, readers learn about the hardships Lincoln faced, including the death of his mother and sister, his father's remarriage, and his own struggles with poverty and education. Despite these challenges, Lincoln's determination and work ethic shine through, as he learns to read and write, takes on odd jobs to support his family, and eventually becomes a successful lawyer and politician. Throughout the book, Whipple emphasizes Lincoln's strong moral character and his commitment to justice and equality. The book is written in a straightforward, accessible style, making it an excellent choice for young readers interested in learning more about this iconic figure in American history.1915. Illustrated.
