Since he was a child, Charles Dickens showed an overflowing imagination, inventing his own adventures. However, his life took a drastic turn when his father was imprisoned for debt. At the age of twelve, he had to leave school to work in a factory, an experience that would deeply mark his work. Before becoming a reporter and renowned writer, he worked as an entrepreneur in a law firm and ventured briefly into the world of performance.

Aware of the impact of a good story, Dickens used his novels to denounce the injustices and social abuses of his time, giving a voice to children and the most disadvantaged classes. Works such as "Great Expectations", "Oliver Twist" and "Christmas Carol" are a reflection of his social commitment and continue to move millions of readers around the world for their sensitivity and humanity.

Little People, BIG DREAMS is a collection of illustrated biographies that invites us to learn about the lives of extraordinary people. From artists and designers to scientists and activists, each book in the series narrates how they managed to turn a small dream into a great story.
