A Book Review from a Lincoln Kid
Lincoln Kids sat down with Asher, a fifth-grader at Wysong Elementary, to talk about his favorite series of books. We’re always on the lookout for material that might interest our readers, and thought that there might be no higher recommendation for literature than that of the Lincoln kids themselves! Thanks for sharing with us, Asher!
