Leo Messi (Little People, BIG DREAMS)

I teach third grade and my students are obsessed with soccer players. They wanted a book about Messi and have not put this book down. They love every bit of it!

Great book about Messi! My 6 years old loves it!

Messi is well known to most soccer fans. I was thrilled to learn more about him. I didn't realize that he started playing professionally at such a young age or that he had to be put on growth hormones. Love to hear that he still loves to play and uses his stardom for good in philanthropic ways. I love this book series and get excited to learn more about different people. Highly recommend.

Our 6 year old soccer loving grandson loves this book

This inspiring biography series for children (4-7 years) brings exciting figure of Leo Messi, one of the best soccer players, if not the best. Leo comes from Argentina, where from childhood he loved playing soccer. He was so good that he got on a team with older boys. With Leo on the team, they won every single tournament. At thirteen, he got invited to Spain to try out for Barcelona’s youth academy. He was accepted within minutes of his playing. At sixteen, he joined the first team and with time became the greatest player in soccer’s history. When Leo started playing soccer, he was always the smallest among the players. At first, it was because he was the youngest. Later, it turned out to be his medical condition for which he got help with injections. This obstacle didn’t stop him from becoming one of the greatest soccer players. There were times, when his team lost, and in those moments he drew inspiration from happy children, including his family and all the children he helped through his charity. With easy to comprehend sentences, and fun illustrations, this book is a cheerful inspiration for children.

This is a very nicely written book by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara, & illustrated by Florencia Gavilan (part of the "Little People, Big Dreams" collection) about the life and achievements of Leo Messi. ⚽️ I like how sturdy this book is made, as well as the colorful pictures and easy to read pages. The book is easy for younger children to read, but also great for adults too. 😊 I love the inspirational storyline of Leo Messi's life and the obstacles he overcame, as well as the charities he's helped with. ❤️ This is a wonderful book, and I would definitely recommend this. I would like to order more books from this series, as I love the positive messages that can be taken from reading this book. Excellent product. 📖
