(4) K-3 Illustrated by Matt Faulkner. Young Abe's devotion to his mother and grief over her death are here emphasized as seminal to his later life. His early schooling and gradual acceptance of his stepmother are also highlighted as turning points. St. George's comfortably colloquial style will engage readers. The mood of the caricature illustrations doesn't always match the text.
