Looking for a series about people who have made a difference in our world?
Looking for books at an easy reading level?
Try Little People, Big Dreams published in English by Frances Lincoln Children’s Books.
Each book in the series – originally written in Spanish – is by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara. The design is simple: a plain font with only a few sentences on each page along with full-page illustrations by a variety of artists. The style is informative rather than poetic and the reading level is suitable for children 8 years old and up. There are several dozen titles, so the the books would be useful for classroom teachers starting students on basic research projects or book reports. However, children who prefer nonfiction reading would also enjoy many of these titles, and therefore they are highly recommended for curious readers 8 to 12 years old.
Available online and in-store from Hemingway’s
