Robt. Schumann : The Story of the Boy Who Made Pictures in Music

by Thomas Tapper

Then there was Longfellow, who was born in Portland, Maine. How many of his poems do you know besides Hiawatha?

LONGFELLOW.

And then we must not forget Whittier, who wrote many lovely poems. One was about a little girl who spelled the word that her companion missed in school and so she went above him in the class.

WHITTIER.

And still there was another little boy only a year older than Robert Schumann. He was born in a cabin.

LINCOLN'S BIRTHPLACE.

This boy's name, as you can guess, was Abraham Lincoln.
