I Am Abraham Lincoln is the first segment of the 31st episode in Season 1 of Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum.
Plot[]
Yadina is horrified when part of the playset she borrowed from her friend drops down into the sewer. She doesn’t want her friend to get angry, so what should Yadina do? To the Secret Museum! Our heroes are sent back in time to meet one of Yadina’s personal heroes: Abraham Lincoln. When we meet a young Abe, he is reading a book that he borrowed from his neighbor, one that soon becomes ruined when a leak in his roof drips rainwater all over it. Abe is distressed about the accident, but it doesn’t take him long to realize what he needs to do: tell his neighbor the truth about what happened. Watching Abe own up to his mistake inspires Yadina to do the same because even when it’s hard, it’s important to always be honest.

Trivia[]
- The plot of the episode is different from the Ordinary People Change the World book. The book is about Abe's kindness, while the episode is about Abe's honesty.
- Once Abraham Lincoln borrowed Ramsey's Life of Washington from Josiah Crawford, a neighbor. When the rain ruined it, he had to repay him by stripping corn for three days.
- Much like she had a crush on George Washington in I Am George Washington, Yadina is enamored with Lincoln, blushing around him and even forgetting her name. She even says that he's her favorite president.
