The subject this time is King Charles, and the book tells of how he was thrust into the limelight at just 3 years old when his mother became Queen. It describes how after struggling with loneliness at boarding school, he then excelled at college, where he also got to explore his artistic side. While in college, he also developed a love for the outdoors and a deep appreciation of nature, and vowed to use his position to help protect these resources. The book also references the many good causes that he supports, and the charity work he has done down through the years prove the lives of young people, work that he intends to continue now that he has become King.

The man the world has known as the Prince of Wales since 1958, is being crowned Charles III, King of the United Kingdom on May 6, 2023. Here’s a simple story about the intervening years.Little People, BIG DREAMS is a best-selling biography series for kids that explores 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.

We already have a few other titles from the Little People, BIG DREAMS series on our bookshelves at home so we were happy to add this new book about the life of King Charles, in time for his coronation! 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. These books were a wonderful find and great for small children to learn about these wonderful people of our past and in the present. Thanks to NetGalley and Frances Lincoln Children’s Books for the copy for review from which I’ve shared a few illustrations. (I like this artist better than some of the others. 😊)

The nonfiction book, illustrated by Matt Hunt, is the first of the Little People, Big Dreams series to reach No 1. It sold 15,786 copies in the seven days to 29 April, overtaking Marian Keyes’ novel Again, Rachel, a sequel to romcom Rachel’s Holiday. King Charles by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara within this wonderful Little People, BIG DREAMS series we discover the incredible life of King Charles and this book was one of my Favourites.

This is another worthy instalment in the excellent Little People Big Dreams series, which is always a favourite with my family. A lot has happened in his life, and with such brief biography, which tries to encompass his whole life so far, everything seems to be too brief. It’d be nice to learn more about Charles himself, what shaped him, what brought him the greatest joy in life, how that could inspire others.From the critically acclaimed, multimillion-copy best-selling Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the life of King Charles. I was first introduced to the Little People, Big Dreams series with the Elizabeth II volume. It was published in her jubilee year. Exactly one month before her son's coronation, King Charles comes out. 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 . This publication provides children with a clear and informative text about King Charles III. However, it is also a great summary without the tabloid mess for adults.

The book begins with the birth of Charles in 1948. By the age of three, as the son of Queen Elizabeth II, he was the heir to the throne of the United Kingdom and a future king!

Engage children with digital learning

Nevertheless, it is a wonderful series for children, which I highly recommend. All stories are accompanied by delightful illustrations. (Ages: 3-7) 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. 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 . I really liked Matt Hunt’s art. He utilised quite a cool, pastel palette and some of the images were very reminiscent of classic British pastoral artwork with an emphasis on nature. When Charles married Camilla, his closest friend for thirty-five years, they bought a farm in Wales, far from any palace. There, he planted trees, talked to his plants, and ate organic food, inspiring others to live in harmony with nature, too.”
