Little People, Big Dreams: Leo Messi

What it is: Little People, Big Dreams: Lionel Messi tells the story of one of football’s greatest players. From kicking a ball around the streets of Rosario, Argentina, as a child to overcoming challenges with his growth and reaching the very top of the game, Messi’s story is one of determination, talent and following your dreams. It also celebrates his work off the pitch, including his commitment to UNICEF and children’s causes.

Why we love it: We can’t get enough of the Little People, Big Dreams series. This inspiring story of Lionel Messi shows children that setbacks don’t have to stand in the way of following your dreams. From playing football in the streets of Rosario to becoming one of the greatest footballers of all time, it’s a lovely reminder to believe in yourself, work hard and never give up.
