Abraham Lincoln was borm in 1809.He was President of the United States from1861 until he died in 1865.
Lincoln was a very tall man.He was six feet four inches tall.His feet were big.They were twelve inches long.
Lincoln was too tall to fit in most beds.When he was President,the people from his hometown gave hin a special bed..It was nine feet long,and so it was big enough for him.
All his life,Lincoln liked to laugh.He liked to make other people laugh,too.People said that he was so funny that he could even make cats laugh.
Many people thought Abraham Lincoln was very ugly.Right before he became President,an eleven-year-old girl wrote him a letter.She said that she wanted him to grow a beard.Lincoln thought about this and decided that it was a good idea.That’s why in most pictures of Lincoln he has a short beard.
