Inspiring and Motivating!
Full of inspiring young people who have achieved great things starting at a young age. Dante feels frustrated that he is told over and over that he is too young and to wait till he's older. Dante learns you are never too young to start on a dream! The achievements of these young POC is even inspiring for me as an adult. I think this book is a great motivator for kids of all ages.

This book is a black history month must have. Featuring 10 African American children who have done great things at their young ages, this book teaches any child that they are never to young. Me and my son enjoyed learning about these kids and I plan to learn more. Just enough info provided to spark an interest in the reader to learn even more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Motivational... Inspirational... Great Book!
Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2022
This is a great book for school-aged children and should be in every library. It starts off by telling us about a girl who receives the Global Child Prodigy Award at the age of three. Then a four-year-old... Five... all the way up to 12 consecutively! The stories will inspire little ones to do what they do and make a difference where they are. This a great book for every classroom in elementary school!

Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2022
This is a cool book about young children who managed to be successful in their young age, despite anyone telling them that they were too young. It will be an inspiration for all young children & teaches them that they can make a difference even at a young age. Nice clear illustrations as well.
