The little pig and Abe loved each other. Everywhere that Abe went, the pig was sure to go. By late summer, Abe could ride on the pig's back. Fall arrived and with it, a sad announcement from his father. The pig was needed to feed the family over the winter. Abe was so upset, he ran away and hid in the woods for two days. But even that didn't save his poor pig from the dinner table. February 12 marks the 213th birthday of Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln was president during the Civil War and made the Emancipation Proclamation to free people from slavery. Lincoln is remembered for his adult achievements. But what was he like as a kid? Kid Scoop News takes a look at the kid who grew up to be a great man in American history. As a young man, Abe worked at a country store. One time, he discovered that he'd overcharged a customer. He closed the store and walked a long distance to return the extra money. This is one of many stories about Abe's honesty, a quality for which he is often remembered. Abraham Lincoln grew up in a log cabin that had a dirt floor and no electricity or plumbing. Everyone in the family did chores. By the time he was six, he fetched water from the creek, swept out the fireplace, pulled weeds in the garden and gathered nuts. Find the way from the creek back to Abe's log cabin. Find the two identical pigs. Many states have a joint holiday to honor both Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. The holiday is called Presidents Day and this year it is celebrated on Monday, 21st February—the third Monday in February.
