This board book version of Frida Kahlo - an international
bestseller in the critically acclaimed Little People, BIG DREAMS
series - introduces the youngest dreamers to this world-renowned
painter. When Frida was a teenager, a terrible road accident
changed her life forever. Unable to walk, she began painting from
her bed. Her self-portraits, which show her pain and grief, but
also her passion for life and instinct for survival, have made her
one of the most famous artists of the twentieth century. Babies and
toddlers will love to snuggle as you read to them the engaging
story of this fascinating painter, and will also enjoy exploring
the stylish and quirky illustrations of this sturdy board book on
their own. 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. This empowering series 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 versions present expanded stories for
beginning readers. Boxed gift sets allow you to collect a selection
of the books by theme. Paper dolls, learning cards, matching games
and other fun learning tools 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
