Review: An interactive quiz - with no explanation or pictures

As an avid explorer of Lincoln and retired educator, this interactive book is boring and turns children off to the joy of learning.With our test driven school curriculum students do not need to be exposed to more multiple question test. This book lacks substance, is poorly formatted (the questions are not numbered), and insults kids' intelligence by telling them how to hold a Kindle or eBook and how to swipe pages. My kindergarten grandson knows how to use an iPhone better than I do.Students need pictures and hand on experiences as presented Abraham Lincoln Museum in Springfield, Illinois. Here students can explore Lincoln's life from birth to his funeral. Visit the museum's website and walk in Lincoln's steps.The only interaction in this book is whether the kid guessed the correct answer. If the answer is incorrect, the response is "Try again." Not very helpful.
