Certains de ses trait sont; héroique, courageaux, elegant, fidèle, généreux, utile, aimant, honourable, respectueux, travailleur-dur et beacoup plus.

Some of his traits are; heroic, courageous, nice, helpful, generous, likable, honorable, respectful, a hard worker and many more. In addition, these character traits are what make up a true hero.

(All of his character traits had helped him accomplish many things throughout his life. One character trait in particular was caring. He was caring because he tried to enforce peace. By this he abolished slavery showing how much he cared for the American people and all of the slaves. Abraham Lincoln is a very good person due to how much he truly cared for everyone.)

Le total, Abraham Lincoln a eu une vie très intéressante, et les traits de caractère qu'il a le représentent dans une très bonne chemin, qui est pourquoi il est mon héros. En plus, Abraham Lincoln est le meilleure président des États-Unis.

(Overall, Abraham Lincoln lived a very interesting life, and his character traits are a part of what makes him a good person and this is why he is my hero. Moreover, I believe that Abraham Lincoln was the best president of the United States.)
