CLIP Review: Abe Lincoln's Hat

by Martha Brenner

Abe Lincoln was a smart lawyer. People came to him with all kinds of problems. But he had a big problem himself.  He was not a good paper-keeper and forgot where he put important papers. Then Abe had an idea - his tall hat! Does that sound strange and hard to believe? Well, that is only one of the many interesting and true stories you'll read about this great president.
