The Springfield Tour, which resulted from this forum, also had a big effect.

I have also read over 25 children's books about Lincoln. They are a bit shorter than books aimed at an older audience. I like to read them, especially the older ones. It is interesting to see the change in where they put their emphasis. But that is a subject for another thread.

I've read a few of the children's books but never really looked at them as a separate category. How the emphasis has changed over time is a great topic for discussion. Like Eva, I hope you will start the thread.
