About the Book

In this new series, discover the lives of outstanding people from designers and artists to scientists. All of them went on to achieve incredible things, yet all of them began life as a little child with a dream. The second book follows Frida Kahlo, whose desire to study medicine was destroyed by a childhood accident. Frida began painting from her bedside and produced over 140 works, culminating in a solo exhibition in America. This inspiring and informative little biography comes with extra facts about Frida's life at the back.

Review :
" . . . introduc[es] kids to important figures in Latinx history." --Good Housekeeping, (Praise for Little People, BIG DREAMS Frida Kahlo en Español) Best children's books for spring - "Strikingly illustrated, they're superb first biographies for younger readers." --The Huffington Post 'Sumptuously illustrated hardbacks, they take the life stories of famous women in history and retell them in a child-friendly way'--Daily Mail 'The picture book biopic of Frida Kahlo in the very successful Little People, Big Dreams series is very carefully judged. It doesn't sugarcoat Frida's injuries or her struggles with chronic pain, nor does it indulge in triumph-over-adversity clichés, but looks at her disability as part of who she is as a woman and an artist. Frida is shown with a range of mobility aids, which is a bonus.'--James Catchpole, Caboodle "A stylish book ... a great stepping stone to non-fiction."--The Guardian Family Review "A QUIRKY kids biography series"--The Voice "Brilliantly accessible and inspiring" --Rhino Reads "One children's books series trying to fight back... by telling the inspiring stories of women who overcame adversity and made history by pursuing their childhood dreams."--Toronto Star "The kind of books that adults will covet and collect as well... The language and structure is simple enough for young readers, while a biographical timeline at the end of each book offers greater historical complexity" --Irish Times
