From the critically acclaimed, multimillion-copy bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the life of Princess Diana, the world's most loved princess.

Known for her kind-hearted nature from a young age, Diana touched the hearts of many. She was working as a primary school teacher when she met Prince Charles, and they married in front of millions of people. With her sudden fame, Diana used her status to bring awareness to a number of charitable issues across the globe, whilst raising her two sons to be more in touch with the world outside of the palace. Even after her divorce, she remained in the public eye, working to make the world a kinder place.

An icon of style and grace, Diana is remembered as the princess of the people, who encouraged us all to stand for what we believe in. 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 iconic princess's life.

Little People, BIG DREAMS is a bestselling biography series for kids that explores 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. This empowering series of books offers inspiring messages to children of all ages, in a range of formats.

The board books are told in simple sentences, perfect for reading aloud to babies and toddlers. The hardback and paperback versions present expanded stories for beginning readers. With rewritten text for older children, the treasuries each bring together a multitude of dreamers in a single volume. You can also collect a selection of the books by theme in boxed gift sets. Activity books and a journal provide even more ways to make the lives of these role models accessible to children.

Inspire the next generation of outstanding people who will change the world with Little People, BIG DREAMS!
