My youngest daughter loves learning about historical events and people. She has become my little history buff. So, when I heard about the "Little People, Big Dreams" series from Quarto Knows, I couldn't wait to get my hands on a couple of their new releases to share with her. Right now she is all about women in history, and learning about their great achievements, and how many came from nothing or struggled early in life, but persevered to see their dreams come true.
Thanks to the kind folks at Quarto Knows, they sent along their Anne Frank and Mother Theresa books for us to review. I wish you could have seen my daughter's face when I handed her the books. She loves these two, and can talk your ear off about them, and what she knows. Anne Frank is a personal favorite of hers, and she hopes one day to visit the Anne Frank museum to see the secret annex for herself.
These two books are great in introducing children to these outstanding people in history, including all about their lives, facts and even photos. I like how the books are written like a story in the beginning, full page illustrations and text at the bottom, to keep kids engaged, as read through the pages. Unlike other biographies or books about famous people, these books are written with kids in mind, so it is written to introduce them to these people, and get them excited about learning more about them when they are done.
Both of my girls really enjoyed these two books, and love sharing all about Anne Frank and Mother Teresa. They both want me to pick up more books in this series so that they can learn about other influential women in history. I love seeing them get excited about learning about these women, and it is reminder to them that they can dream big and can achieve great things, too.
This is such a wonderful series, and one I will be buying more so that we can start our own "Little People, Big Dreams" collection, to enjoy for years to come.
More about the Anne Frank Book:
"New in the critically acclaimed Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the life of Anne Frank, the writer whose diary captured the hearts of the public.
Anne Frank was born in Germany to a loving family. But when World War II broke out, Anne and her family had to hide in a secret annex in Amsterdam. Here, Anne wrote her famous diary, describing her belief in people's goodness and her hopes for peace. After the war, her diary captured the hearts of the public and she became one of the most important diarists of the 20th century. This moving book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of Anne's life."
More about the Mother Theresa Book:
"New in the critically acclaimed Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the incredible life of Mother Teresa, along with her message of love and charity.
Agnes (later to become Mother Teresa) was born in Skopje, Macedonia. From an early age, she knew she wanted to dedicate herself to religion. She was fascinated by stories of missionaries helping people and wanted to do the same. She spent the rest of her life caring for the sick and poor around the world and is now remembered as Saint Teresa of Calcutta. This moving book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of Mother Teresa's amazing life."
