Abe Lincoln spoke many memorable adages. As the sixteenth president, he needed great wisdom to guide the country through the Civil War, preserve the Union, and end slavery. This nontraditional tribute to the president who brought the homespun demeanor and humor of his humble beginnings to the White House uses the alphabet to organize a wealth of information about his life and accomplishments. Filled with Lincoln's often humorous proverbs and witty cartoons by John O'Brien, this colorful book takes a thought-provoking look at Old Abe.
I wrote this book, Don't Make Promises, to bring an awareness, and some positivity, along with an eye-opening view of being a caregiver, and what a majority of it entails. When some people on the outside are looking at the relationship between the child and caregiver, if it is positive, it seems like an easy job. They think, "This looks like something I can do!" Oh, contraire! Looks are deceiving. If you think that, then you have not got a clue about being a caregiver. This book opens up some really strong points, and some negative ones. If you have an open mind, and can search your heart, then maybe this book is for you. While writing this book, I had a chance to talk to middle schoolers, and teenagers, that spoke on how it made them feel when someone promised something but did not keep their promise. The majority said they did not trust too many people after that. Some even expressed felling depressed and either wanted to do harm, steal, and many other things. Be mindful of each others' feelings when making promises. I also observed mothers and caregivers in different settings. I listened with an open ear and learned a lot just by being a silent listener and observer. Some of the mothers were instrumental to me with helpful material, i.e., "the single caregiver who becomes pregnant while in your employ." My situation was similar, but I was married. My employers were wonderful and allowed me to bring my baby to work. They trusted me because they knew I could handle their school-aged children, maintain the household, and care for my child. Having a job as a caregiver has taught me as much as I teach the children I look after. If you do not possess these qualities, when you start the job, you will learn, quickly, patience, caring, loving, kindness, laughing, playing, joking, cuddling, hugging, smooching, etc. It give me such a warm and comfortable feeling inside to have the children nuzzle up to me. On the floor, for instance, watching T.V., when they come and lay across my lap or lay on my back. I have cared for children of all ages, newborn to 18 years of age. I saw many of them grow up and, still to this day in 2007, I have positive contact with the families, I can go to many of the houses and have dinner, sleep-over, or just hang out. There is something very special that Mr. Rogers always said at the beginning of his show, that made a lot of sense then, as it does now! It's such a good feeling, to know you're alive, and a happy feeling, you're growing inside, and you wake up ready to say, "I think I'll wake up snappy today!" This is the attitude needed by all caregivers. I sincerely hope this book will be helpful and informative.
Abraham Lincoln is the most frequently quoted United States President. In this fascinating compendium are the best, funniest and most profound sayings of this most quotable of Chief Executives. The quotes are arranged according to subject, providing a bit of Lincoln wit and wisdom for any situation. From his youth in pioneer Illinois to the embattled White House of the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln never lost his capacity for dry humor--or his extraordinary gift of eloquence.
Abraham Lincoln is a near legendary figure in American history, and the dimensions of his legend assure many shapes based on the historical reality of his achievements. He was the quintessential self-made man who rose from humble origins to become the chief executive of his nation. He was a political idealist whose dedication to ensuring liberty and equality for all resulted in his assassination. And, as the documents collected in this volume attest, he was, although largely self-educated, the author of some of the most eloquent and insightful addresses, speeches, and correspondence in American letters of the nineteenth century.
