Story time

While stumbling around the New York Times, I came across this great post. The story is simple and the illustrations are fun. It's almost like an adult picture book, but I can imagine a child reading and learning more about Honest Abe too. The author, Maria Kalman, sounds like an interesting woman. Now I'm intrigued about her children's books. I like her whimsical style.

p.s. This is awesome because my students are currently working on researching for their own biographies of historical figures.
