My daughter has been desperate for a Florence Nightingale book to come out in this series … and it did not disappoint. She read it herself and said it was Amazing - thank you for these books, truly inspiring the next generation
4.0 out of 5 stars Another little gem
Florence NightingaleWell deserving of her place in this inspiring and thoughtful series; often championing more recent influences and famous people.Here is one I truly knew a little bit about before reading Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara’s mini biography of Florence Nightingale.As always beautifully illustrated with a gentle palette of colour. Enhancing simple words to carry the story to a young audience.Florence was fortunate to receive a better education than most young girls. But against her parent’s wishes she found her desire to help others overtook more accepted futures via a wealthy marriage, expected of women in her time. Instead with determination and hard work she studied the art of nursing care. By her authority later, amid a time of war, she revolutionised cleanliness and promoted high standards in hospital wards.I have always been aware of her role in preventing death during the Crimean War but this is a book to cherish and motivate young minds as it shows a simple girl who had a lasting legacy.Change can happen when ideas are shared, where voices and actions are heard and followed.I do feel this series makes a difference in taking role models from their earliest days and showing how dreams can come to pass. Caring for others brings a different reward package; such life stories are still needed to show the lasting values for society. I am sorry that the additional hospital buildings built during the recent pandemic and known as Nightingales could not be brought into this far reaching life story.
Love this series!
We have a few of these books in this series and they're all fantastic. Easy to read, nice illustrations, and covers a good range of historical figures.
A great biographical picture book by Vegara

英語の勉強のため絵本を買いました。装丁がしっかりしていて、プレゼント向きだと思います。ナイチンゲールの事を知れて良かったです。英語初心者の私でもさらっと読めるので良いです！
Awesome book!
I love books and am hoping to pass that down to my kids. I have been reading my whole life - more so than most people or so I am told. I am typically reading 2-3 novels at a time. That being said I am very impressed with Little People, BIG DREAMS!The readability of this book is amazing - I can read this to my seven year old and have a slightly decent conversation with my seven year old and then in a year or so he will be able to start reading this book on his own.Florence Nightingale was again a hit with my eight year old and he loved that she took care of people.Art - the art is lovely and simple - but keeps your eyes moving to see everythingStory - Straightforward and easy for my kids to understand.With all that being said - this is an excellent book! And each and every one of the little people, BIG DREAMS books introduces your children to a different sport, career, art style, a life they could also live!
Wonderful story, wonderful series!
