One thing that Little People Big Dreams does well is introduce children to people they may not learn about otherwise. Lewis Hamilton is one of those people. In the US, NASCAR is the racing norm. Not as many people follow Grand Prix, so the names are not as known or hyped. This was a great beginning look at a different version of a sport as well as a modern person who is making strides in all areas of life. ( ) Born in England, Lewis lived with his mother and sisters much of the time, but it was his father who encouraged him the most in his interest in auto racing. His father always told him to ignore any nay sayers and "Let your results speak for you." He started with radio-controlled cars, then on to Go Karts, and eventually became the first black and youngest Formula One Grand Prix champion ever. He continues to speak to racial justice and equality in sports and is an advocate for positive mental health as well as environmental issues. The illustrations by Fernando Martín are fun, simple, colorful, and delightful. Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, but especially to a school or public library! I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Quarto Publishing Group/Frances Lincoln Children's Books via NetGalley. Thank you!

"Lewis's childhood was filled with days spent watching Formula One racing with his dad. His hobby led him to go-kart racing and, at the age of 10, he won the British Kart Championship. Shortly after, he began training as a racing driver with McLaren, rising through the ranks to become the top of his field. This amazing story of the first Black Formula One driver features a fact and photo section at the back."-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
