Meet Abraham Lincoln (Landmark Books)

I looked for it everywhere and it came in looking new

I teach at an inner-city school where many of the students are reading below grade level (but making great progress). This means I am always on the lookout for high-interest, low-level (high-low) books that deal with the content my students are responsible for learning. This book and the entire Landmark biography series is one of the best buys I have made yet. I bought this book for my 5th graders because they have been learning about the Civil War. The students who read this book loved it, and have gone on to read more of the biographies in the Landmark series. For those of you who are familiar with the DRA, this book is an O (3rd grade reading level). However, the content is not watered down, so my students have learned a lot from reading these books.

I’ve bought several of these books for my 9 year old’s reading time and she just loves them. They have truly engaged her and she asks to read them which is amazing in itself. On that note alone I highly recommend!

My dad received this book for his first communion in the 60s. It was his favorite book growing up. Finding a copy for his 60th birthday was magical!

My granddaughter is 7 years old and Abe is her favorite president. She loved this book. Learned many new facts about her fav. and the reading level was perfect for her as she is venturing into chapter books.

Bought as a gift for grandchild. Read thru it myself prior to giving it as present and can't believe how much information is presented in such clear and easy statements.

My third grade teacher gave me this book to read when I was in her class. That was over thirty years ago. I bought the digital copy thinking I would enjoy reading it again. I was not disappointed. It's as good now as it was then.

I ordered this book for the pre school class and they are excited to read all the new books we purchased for the class.
