Congressman Tim Ryan 17-OH says
Fantastic book! If every child read and applied the penny principles of Lincoln, it would transform our country into a more compassionate and confident light for the world. This book will assist in developing the inner resilience children need to cut their own path. If you're a parent, buy this book today and read it to your child tonight. ----Congressman Tim Ryan 17-OH

Elaina Redmond's THE POWER OF THE PENNY is an instructive, interactive and colorful journey through our great nation's history and the depths of the human spirit. It's a wonderful introduction to the legacy of Abraham Lincoln and a gateway for kids to discover the world-changing power within themselves. In my 8 1/2 years in the book business, I haven't seen anything quite like it, and I can't think of a better way for kids and families to ring in the Lincoln Bicentennial. --MATT R.
