Eileen Meyer & Dave Szalay | The Superlative A. Lincoln | 2026 National Book Festival

Children's author Eileen Meyer and illustrator Dave Szalay discuss their book, "The Superlative A. Lincoln" — a collection of poems that explores Abraham Lincoln’s superlative qualities, from being the tallest president to the best wrestler. Earlier this year, Florida Humanities Center for the Book selected Meyer's book as one of two titles to represent Florida literature at this year's National Book Festival in Washington D.C. Meyer's work will be featured alongside archeologist Judith Bense's book "Early Spanish Florida."  To read the digital edition of FORUM magazine, go to floridahumanities.online.
