Jesse was the youngest of the ten children in his family. Although he was the fastest runner at his school, he couldn't train with the other children. He had to work to support his family. But Jesse never gave up and became one of the greatest athletes. He broke numerous records and even won at the Olympic Games. Little People, Big Dreams tells the impressive life stories of great people: Each of these personalities, whether philosopher, astrophysicist, or primatologist, has achieved the unimaginable. It all began when they were still small: with big dreams. For what age are these books intended? For babies, the perfect gift to welcome them into a world full of dreams! And parents will be encouraged by these books during sleepless nights to make reading aloud a natural part of life. Toddlers will be enchanted by the illustrations - they will discover numerous things. The books are also great "vocabulary trainers"! 3- to 5-year-olds will absorb everything, illustrations and texts, almost like sponges! 6-, 8-, and 10-year-olds have a more developed understanding of the illustrations and the meaning of the story - it's not just about accepting oneself and realizing one's own future dreams, but also about accepting others as they are. Later: The books are good gifts for any occasion, as childhood dreams can become reality throughout life. "The famous ... children's biography series by Spanish author Isabel Sánchez Vegara is among the most beautiful things currently available in the children's book world. ... Simply magnificent."
