I’ve reviewed many titles in this series. Here is something excellent for those who enjoy these stories of Little People with Big Dreams; it is a collection of that is organized chronologically beginning in 1880s and going through the 2000s.

Start with Harriet Tubman in the very first entry and in this section also meet Rosa Parks, Ella Fitzgerald and others. The next part includes Iris Apfel and Elvis Presley among the entries. Move along to Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Mindy Kaling and Megan Rapinoe in their time periods along with so many inspiring people in the featured short biographies.

It is very easy to recommend this book. It is perfect for home and school libraries. Each entry is nicely laid out and enticingly illustrated; time lines are also included. This is a book that will be dipped into again and again.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for this title. All opinions are my own.

Pub date: 04 July 2023 (how appropriate!)

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
