From the moment his father gave four-year-old Ayrton Senna a go-kart, he was in love with racing. Showing promise from an early age, Ayrton would go on to take the Formula One world by storm, winning championship after championship and becoming one of the greatest drivers in the sport’s history. Off the track, he championed education for the underprivileged in Brazil, his home country. This inspiring book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the superstar driver’s life.

Little People, BIG DREAMS is a bestselling series of books and educational games that explore the lives of outstanding people, from designers and artists to scientists and activists. All of them achieved incredible things, yet each began life as a child with a dream.

Skill beyond his years; dead before his time. Brilliant bio.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 October 2020

Such a great series for our little ones. Small in stature but enthusiastic about books and ready to dream big dreams.
Now here is a book that this old one wanted to read. Ayrton Senna is one of my heroes; I’m of an age to have witnessed his career and seen first hand his brilliance.

These books show how ambition and determination can overcome, poverty, misfortune or happenstance.

Motor Racing appears to many as a rich person’s world and perhaps this book is out of kilter with the other people this set of books recognises.

But Ayrton transcends such norms and assumptions. Although from a wealthy family he showed a desire for cars, initially go-karts from an early age. He made practice makes perfect a truth as he never took defeat badly, other than a means to learn more and spend more time practising.

But it is the love he had from others; their respect and appreciation that marks him out as a unique personality. His belief in God dovetailed into his desire to become the best and from his wealth he never forgot his country of birth and other children less fortunate than himself.

These books uplift the grown-ups and inspire our kids to be their best. I am also pleased with the adult information and the promotion of a more adult focused biography of this worthy champion.

Interesting book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 October 2020

This is a very interesting and educational book for children, which is about racing driver Ayrton Senna and his life from when he was born until he died. My daughter and I read this book together and she enjoyed looking at the pictures while I was telling her about Ayrton and his achievements. This would be a good book for a school classroom.
