Dans ce documentaire,un bref aperçu de personnes ayant marqué l’histoire, sont présentés de façon héroïque. Les textes sont courts, mais précis. Les mots les plus importants apparaissent en majuscule dans le texte. Et les illustrations ! Elles sont magnifiques!

A beautiful book about people who fought for their dreams and made history. I love the illustration, but I just find the first-person narrative to be a bit weird, especially since some of them are dead and missing. I also find it to be a bit too concise, but I love how they managed to weave in memorable quotes from these famous people. Definitely a book I'd recommend for parents and kids to read. And anyone who wants a break from heavy books.
