Drawing Conclusions Quiz 1

Abraham Lincoln had a tadpole. It wasn't the kind that had a slender tail and lives in ponds. Lincoln's tadpole lived in the White House. His "tadpole" was his young son Thomas. One day, when Thomas was a baby, Lincoln looked at him and noticed that the baby's head seemed too large for his body. "He looks like a tadpole," he chuckled. From that day on, the baby was called Tad -- short for Tadpole. And by that name he was known to the nation.
Also known to the nation were Tad's pranks. He thought up so many tricks to play on people that he kept the White House in confusion.
One afternoon while Mrs. Lincoln was entertaining guests in the East Room, Tad rushed in behind his two pet goats. They were tied to a chair. The ladies gasped. But before they really knew what was happening, Tad and the goats ran out of the room.
