Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A stray dog's moving tale about life with Abraham Lincoln--our sixteenth American president and a true animal lover!
Meet Fido--a "yaller" mutt who was Abraham Lincoln's constant companion and pampered family pet at the time he was elected President. Smart, friendly, and frightened of loud noises, Fido was uniquely positioned to witness American history . . . when he wasn't trying to hide under a piece of furniture! Young readers will hear from Fido about Abraham Lincoln's love for all creatures (great and small), his unique methods of child-rearing, his most famous speeches--including the Emancipation Proclamation--and the tragedy that cut short his life.
With realistic black-and-white illustrations throughout and a fact-filled appendix including information about Abraham Lincoln the animal lover, animal cruelty laws, and more, this is historical fiction for middle graders who don't realize they like historical fiction!
A little yaller pup -- Old Bob & Co. -- Gone fishin' -- A house divided -- Billy the barber -- Vote for Old Abe! -- One hundred guns -- Farewell -- The last parade.
