LITTLE PEOPLE BIG DREAMS: KING CHARLES (HB)

Part of the beloved Little People, BIG DREAMS series — beautifully illustrated biographical picture books that introduce young children to the lives of remarkable people. This volume tells the story of King Charles III, Britain’s monarch, environmentalist and champion of young people.

Little Charles always knew he had a big job ahead of him. As the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II, he was born a prince and would one day inherit the throne — but what defined him long before his coronation was his passion for the world around him. From an early age, Charles cared deeply about nature, the environment and the countryside. As a young man, he founded The Prince’s Trust, a charity that has helped millions of young people across the UK build skills, confidence and better futures. He championed organic farming and sustainable living decades before it became mainstream. In September 2022, following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, Charles became King Charles III.

Told in simple, engaging language with warm and expressive illustrations by Matt Hunt, this is a fascinating introduction to the life of Britain’s King — past, present and future. A facts and photos section at the back — including a biographical timeline — brings Charles’s story into the real world.
