Lincoln and Douglass: An American Friendship

Younster really liked it! Good read for children.

Nikki Giovanni actually read portions of this book aloud to me (and others) at an event on April 18th, 20ll at the university I attend. She has a dry, quirky sense of humor that I really enjoyed, so I had to order this book. And I liked it! It was nice to see a new side of these American leaders. My only complaint is that the pages about Harper's Ferry and John Brown (while important) take the focus away from Lincoln's and Douglass' story.

It is a great book for the kids and family too. I am very pleased to add it to our home library.
