Meet Fido--a "yaller" mutt who became Abraham Lincoln's constant companion and pampered family pet. Smart, friendly, and frightened of loud noises, Fido was uniquely positioned to witness American history . . . when he wasn't trying to hide under a piece of furniture. While living with the Lincoln family, Fido saw his master elected president of the United States! Young readers will hear from Fido about Abraham Lincoln's love for all creatures (great and small), his unique methods of child-rearing, his most famous speeches--including the Emancipation Proclamation--and the tragedy that cut short his life. Based on a true story, Fido includes information about Abraham Lincoln the animal lover, animal cruelty laws, and more!
