Have you ever had a dream? How did you make that dream come true?
Dave McGillivray is a world-renowned athlete, entrepreneur,
captivating motivational speaker, and philanthropist. He's also the
director of the Boston Marathon, the world's oldest and maybe most
famous annual race! But he wasn't always so accomplished. In Dream
Big: A True Story of Courage and Determination, his nonfiction
picture book for readers ages 6 to 10, Dave shares his unique, true
story about reaching deep and showing extreme determination in the
face of doubt, disappointment, and loss. In Dream Big: A True Story
of Courage and Determination, Dave is a small kid who wants more
than anything to be a professional athlete. But there's one
problem. You have to be tall to play basketball. You have to be big
to play football. And Dave? He's little, but his dreams are BIG. He
turns to running, because you don't have to be big to be a marathon
runner! But you do need to train. And Dave doesn't do much training
before he crosses his first starting line of the Boston Marathon.
Which is probably why he doesn't quite cross the finish line on his
first attempt at the famous race. But his Grandpa believes in him,
and that's enough to make Dave train hard for the next Boston
Marathon. But will his Grandpa be there to see him succeed? Kids
and grownups alike will be inspired by Dave's story of passion,
determination, and grit. Nomad Press's first foray into the genre
of nonfiction picture books, Dream Big delivers on all the promise
you'd expect from a vibrant, real-life character paired with an
award-winning fine artist. Together, Dave McGillivray and Ron
Himler create a story that is heartwarming, inspiring, and
beautifully presented.
