Complete with letter reproductions, this story tells of eleven-year-old Grace Bedell’s written suggestion to President Lincoln that he grow a beard and the amazing events that followed as result. Reprint.
This book is based on a true story, and it has copies of the real letters in the back of the book. Knowing the story is true made me like this book so much more. The illustrations aren't my favorite, but a fun story about a little girl and how she helped Abraham Lincoln. :)
