Abe Lincoln's Dream

32 pp. | Roaring Brook | October, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59643-608-4 $16.99
(1) K-3 Abraham Lincoln's ghost, worried about the path the country has taken since 1865, soars over Washington DC with a girl visitor to the White House. Abe's Ichabod Crane–like angularity is set against an imaginative array of design elements. With a light touch, the book effectively presents government as a work in progress rather than a done-deal; author's notes provide historical context.
