This Newbery Honor Booklet - from a three-time Newbery Honor creator - paints an indelible portrait of the prairie president. Clara Ingram Judson reveals Lincoln in all his gauntness, gawkiness, and greatness: a backwoods son who became Leader and kept the Union. Judson's careful reading is enlivened by her trips to his home and brilliant explanations of the Lincoln family's pioneer life. She uncovers the unforgettable account from his boyhood and times as a shopkeeper and lawyer, to Lincoln's first elected offices and his election as president, the Civil Battle, and assassination.Clara Ingram Judson had written more than 70 children's books. She gained the Newbery Honor three times, and was a two-time receiver of the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award. Judson also managed a radio program on homemaking, which debuted in 1928 - making her main female broadcasters.
