Little People Big Dreams Book, Florence Nightingale

The Little People Big Dreams series by Maria Isabel Sanchez is a gorgeous collection of accessible biographies for children.

Little People Big Dreams, Florence Nightingale features quirky illustrations as it takes you through the life of the social reformer. It was expected that Florence would find a husband and settle down but that kind of life wasn’t for her. Her calling was caring for the sick and the poor, so she followed her passion with her whole heart and trained to be a nurse.

The hardback book is told as a story with facts and photos at the back.

The Little People Big Dreams Series allows children to discover 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. View our collection here.
