It was a Sunday. Thomas and Nancy Lincoln were the proud parents of a new son. His name was Abraham. Thomas and Nancy lived in Hardin County, Kentucky. Their home was a log cabin. Thomas was a farmer and a carpenter. Dennis Hanks was Nancy's cousin. He saw Abe that first day. He said, "He'll never come to much." Years later, Dennis explained why he'd said that. He said that Abe was "the puniest, cryin'est little youngster I ever saw." Dennis was wrong. Abe grew up to be one of the greatest men in American history! Book jacket.Owens, L.
