From the critically acclaimed, multimillion-copy bestselling Little
People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the life of King Charles.
Little Charles always knew that, one day, he would have a big job
to do. As the son of Queen Elizabeth II, he was a prince, and in
the future, he was to inherit the throne of the United Kingdom. As
a young man, he developed a passion for one cause; the environment.
Charles recognised that plastics and pollutants were causing harm
to Earth, and as the Prince of Wales, he spent all his efforts
championing climate justice and sustainability. As a member of the
Royal Family, Charles used his power to build important
organisations such as The Prince's Trust, a charity that works to
improve the lives of young people across the UK. And in 2022, when
he became King, he pledged that he would spend the rest of his life
serving his people with loyalty, respect and love. This inspiring
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 royal's life, from little prince to
grown-up king. Little People, BIG DREAMS is a bestselling series of
books and educational games that explore 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.
