Little People, BIG DREAMS first came to life because author Maria Isabel had an idea an idea that blossomed into a dream that came to life in a book series!
Maria Isabel S nchez Vegara is the author and creator of the internationally best-selling series Little People, BIG DREAMS. Growing up in the 70s in Barcelona, her heroines were Pippi Longstocking, Momo and Tinkerbell, and she felt great admiration for the Spanish poet Gloria Fuertes. She dreamed of becoming a poet just like her one day. It took Maria Isabel almost 40 years and most of her savings to make her dream come true. In 2012, after 20 years of working in advertising, she self-published her first book. Two years later, she released what was meant to be a birth present for her twin nieces, Alba and Claudia: the very first title in the Little People, BIG DREAMS series.
At the beginning the series was first published in Spain as Peque a & GRANDE by Alba Editorial, and now Little People, BIG DREAMS is translated into more than thirty-three languages. Maria Isabel likes to think the success of the series relies on the fact that children love to read real stories about other children s experiences, lives and journeys. It gives them the strength and the courage to believe in themselves and dream BIG. As The Independent once said: What a cool way to drift off to sleep.
Now with more than 12 million copies sold worldwide, the series continues to grow and expand, introducing children around the world to a diverse range of creatives, scientists, politicians and more!
