Astrid Lindgren: Volume 35

4.15 (294 ratings by Goodreads)

English

By (author): Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara

Illustrated by: Linzie Hunter

In this book from the critically acclaimed, multimillion-copy bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover how Astrid Lindgren grew up to become one of the worlds best-loved authors, and the creator of the irresistible Pippi Longstocking.

Little Astrid grew up on an old farm in Sweden. Her childhood was very happy, so happy that she never wanted to grow up. When she was four, her friend Edit read Astrid her first story. Suddenly, the entire place was filled with giants, witches and fairies.

They all came out from a magic object called a book. Astrid did her best to learn how to read, and once she started, she couldnt stop! Soon, there were no books left to borrow from the library and her friends.

Learn how Astrid turned her love of books and telling stories into a career as a world-renowned author. Accessible and easy to follow text means that this book can inspire young readers in just the same way that Astrid was inspired when she started reading, all those years ago.

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 the inspiring writers life.

Little People, BIG DREAMS is a bestselling biography series for kids that explores the lives of outstanding people, from designers and artists to scientists and activists. All of them achieved incredible things, yet each began life as a child with a dream.

This empowering series of books offers inspiring messages to children of all ages, in a range of formats. The board books are told in simple sentences, perfect for reading aloud to babies and toddlers. The hardback and paperback versions present expanded stories for beginning readers. With rewritten text for older children, the treasuries each bring together a multitude of dreamers in a single volume. You can also collect a selection of the books by theme in boxed gift sets. Activity books and a journal provide even more ways to make the lives of these role models accessible to children.

Inspire the next generation of outstanding people who will change the world with Little People, BIG DREAMS!
