Abraham Lincoln, Pro Wrestler (Time Twisters) - Hardcover

"Mixing history, humor, and cartoon illustrations, Sheinkin's new series for young readers blends the appeal of Scieszka's Time Warp Trio, Osborne's Magic Tree House, and Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid series." --Booklist

"By the end, readers will have learned quite a bit of history along with the protagonists, without being bored at all [in this] silly story." --Kirkus Reviews

"[A] lively Abraham Lincoln-themed romp . . . The truth about historical figures, Sheinkin suggests, is more interesting than the myths, and Lincoln's story concludes with hints about the historical mix-ups that will figure into subsequent books." --Publishers Weekly

"Black-and-white line drawings reinforce the silliness of the story, while the short chapters will keep reluctant readers hooked. A fun way to entice students to embrace what might seem, at first glance, like boring history." --School Library Journal

"A historical home run!" --Dav Pilkey, bestselling author of Captain Underpants

"Imagine what the world would be like if Steve Sheinkin had decided to become a NASCAR driver instead of one of the finest history writers I know of. Or what if Neil Swaab chose to be a pastry chef instead of becoming one of the most clever cartoonists alive? Well, those guys might be happy, but it would be a very dull world indeed because we wouldn't have the terrific "Time Twisters" series for our reading pleasure. If you want to have fun while simultaneously learning some truly valuable lessons about history, then you absolutely MUST read these books." --Nick Bruel, New York Times-bestselling author of the Bad Kitty series

"A dash of history. A scoop of fun. Give this book to hungry readers everywhere!" --Jennifer L. Holm, New York Times-bestselling author of The Fourteenth Goldfish, on Abigail Adams, Pirate of the Caribbean
