c. to entertain the reader with stories of Lincoln's childhood

Explanation:

Lincoln received fewer than 12 months of schooling but he was keen to learn and do arithmetic. He enjoyed reading biographies and walked several miles in his childhood just for borrowing books. He listened to his father about farming, politics and life. He was always an avid reader and ran for the Illinois legislature. He campaigned hard but lost with 277 votes out of 300 votes which was very close. Hence, frontier Boy explained the hard work of Lincoln and his interest in politics since childhood.
