The Little Legends - Stories of Kids Who Made a Big Difference

Ever wondered what happens when kids stop waiting around for grown-ups to fix things and decide to do it themselves?

Welcome to The Little Legends, a collection of wildly whimsical and deeply daring tales about children who turned their tiny hands into giant forces of good.

From the girl who grew a forest out of a single seed (with help from a whispering squirrel) to the boy who turned bullies into belly dancers (don’t ask—it involves a tutu and a jellyfish), these aren’t your usual bedtime yawns. These are stories with spine, spark, and a splash of strange.

This isn’t a book for the faint-hearted grown-up who thinks kids should stay quiet and clean. Nope. This is for the curious ones, the messy ones, the idea-factories and the accidental heroes. And if you're the kind of adult who talks to pigeons or forgets your own birthday, you'll enjoy it too.

Inside, You’ll Find:

• A library built from junk (and one grumpy raccoon)
• A musical revolution led by a boy and a rusty trombone
• A kindness club that took down a town’s meanness
• A dragon-sized protest in a sleepy school classroom
• A playground reimagined by a brainy tinkerer
• Art that stopped a war (with crayons, not cannons)
• Stray animals getting five-star care (and belly rubs)
• A little chef stirring up hope in a soup pot
• A pint-sized explorer with a map and a dream

Each story is stuffed with just enough silliness, wonder, and goosebump-y courage to keep readers flipping pages faster than a frog on a pogo stick.

So if your kid dreams big, laughs loud, or once tried to invent a time machine using a shoebox, this book belongs on your shelf.
