4.0 out of 5 stars Burke Davis, my Grandfather writes great books., August 5, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Mr. Lincoln's Whiskers (Hardcover)

Burke Davis is my grandfather on my mom's side. My mom, Angela Davis-Gardner, has written two books, "Felice" and "Forms of Shelter". Burke Davis has written 50 or more. I'm 14 now, but when I was about 7 I read Mr. Lincoln's Whiskers. I loved it! I have all of his books and this is the best children's one. I recommend this to see about another side of Abraham Lincoln

This review is from: Mr. Lincoln's Whiskers (Hardcover)

I read this book to my son last night. He is nine years old and he was very interested in Mr. Lincoln, his sense of humor, and young girl who wrote the book. While reading we also discussed Lincoln's honesty and how we need the same kind of honesty from our leaders today. Ryan and I had a wonderful father and son experience!! Thanks for letting my son be more interested in US History.

Thank you for writing it!!
