A beautifully illustrated hardback book telling the biographical story of how Ernest Shackleton grew up to be one of the greatest explorers of all time.
Part of the Little People, Big Dreams series written by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara and illustrated by Olivia Holden, this kid friendly biography is perfectly pitched for 4-8 year olds and tells the inspiring story of how Ernest Shackleton made of one of the most treacherous journeys in the Antarctic in history. The story is written in such a way that both children and adults will enjoy learning about this outstanding explorer.
One thing to note though - if you have one of the early prints, you might need to explain to your kids that the polar bears illustrated on the front and back inside cover are there on a holiday!
