Review:

"My students love your books. I especially like the safe graphic novels. One student, who never wanted to check out books and read, picked up The Assassination of Abraham Lincoln. He brought it back a few days later and said, "I really like this book. I learned a lot about him." I wanted to pump my arm and yell "YESSSS!" He continued to read through all the graphic histories and graphic biographies we had!!" -- Shirley Yount

.,."the art is engaging and bright, and the format will appeal to graphic-novel fans as well as reluctant readers searching for a simple biography."
