Summary

A beautifully lyrical and empowering picture book about the importance of dreaming big, from award-winning author Manjeet Mann and the exceptionally talented debut illustrator, Amanda Quartey. 
Small lived in a small house.  
She had a small room  
with a small window 
and at night  
she slept in a small bed  
with a too small blanket.  
Despite being small,  
Small had BIG dreams. 
In Small’s world, everything is small – her shoes, her bed, everything. But her dreams are big. And Small discovers that when you dream big, anything – and everything – can happen. 
Small’s Big Dream is the first picture book from Manjeet Mann, with artwork by exciting debut illustrator Amanda Quartey. Manjeet Mann is the author of the Costa Children’s Book Award winning The Crossing and critically acclaimed and Carnegie-shortlisted Run, Rebel. 
Manjeet Mann's Small's Big Dream is a testament to the power of dreaming big, a virtue that resonates with kids of all ages. The book's multicultural elements and focus on family values make it a must-read in juvenile fiction. 
For fans of David Almond (My Name is Mina), Kate Albus (A Place to Hang the Moon), Dapo Adeola (My Mum is a Lioness), Sarah Crossan (The Weight of Water), and Bonnie-Sue Hitchcock (The Smell of Other People's Houses).
