Every child who knew Abraham Lincoln loved him as a friend and felt he understood them and truly liked them. Men and women who knew him called him "Honest Abe". People throughout the world thought him among the greatest men ever. He was unusual in many ways. One minute he would wrestle with his sons or tell a Joke and break out in laughter. The next, he'd be deep in thought and not notice anything around him. He was gentle and patient, but very determined. He was tall, thin and stooped. He spent less than a year in school, but never stopped studying. All his life, he was a "learner". Born in a log cabin on the frontier, he made his own way in life and became the president who kept the United States united.
