Synopsis:

In 1820, Sam Harding and Abe Lincoln forged a strong friendship based on their love of learning and the outdoors. This timeless story is about the special bond between the two boys, the experiences they shared growing up in early America, and how one of them eventually became the sixteenth President of the United States.

The illustrator of this children's book, John W. Ewing, was an animation artist at Disney Studios in Burbank from 1956 to 1967 where he helped craft classic feature films such as Sleeping Beauty, One Hundred and One Dalmatians, The Jungle Book, The Sword in the Stone, and Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree. After Disney, Ewing went to New Zealand and launched Freelance Animators Ltd., carrying out contract work for Disney and Warner Bros.

About the Author: Robert L. Bloch is program officer of the H&R Block Foundation, and treasurer and director of the Marion and Henry Bloch Family Foundation.  His father, Henry Bloch, cofounded H&R Block in 1955.  The author's great-great grandfather was one of fifty-two Leavenworth merchants and businessmen who signed a letter written by Mark Delahay requesting Abraham Lincoln visit Leavenworth, Kansas.  Lincoln obliged by traveling there to give his first campaign speech in December, 1859.  Bloch lives in Mission Hills, Kansas.


John W. Ewing joined the team at Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, where he helped craft classic feature films, including Sleeping Beauty, The Sword in the Stone, The Jungle Book, Winnie the Pooh, and 1961's Oscar-nominated  Aquamania.
