Part of the critically acclaimed Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the life of David Bowie, the starman who dazzled audiences with his music.

As a child, young David lived with his family in a tiny house on an ordinary street, but he had a head full of songs and ideas. At school he loved music and dance, and he was inspired by his brother’s rock and jazz records to pick up the saxophone and start writing his own songs. After earning his stripes in some of the coolest bands in London, David splashed onto the solo scene. David knew that to be a star, he had to combine great songs with great performance, and so from that point on, he took on a range of shapeshifting personas, from Ziggy Stardust to the Thin White Duke. But really, he was just being himself and expressing his art on the stage. His songwriting talent and musical skill made him one of rock and roll’s all-time greatest artists. This moving 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 musician’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.

I think it tells us that no matter what you look like you are still gonna be great! It also tells us that everyone is good at something. Everyone can do what they want. It doesn’t matter if you get it wrong you can still do it again and make it right. It doesn’t matter if you look different to other people you still are great!

I liked this book because I really like David Bowie’s lightening strike on his brown eye. I also really like that he has a brown eye and a green eye, and that he transforms into different outfits.

I liked David Bowie because he was really cool and went for dance lessons. He had one blue eye and one brown. He would dress in crazy outfits. I liked the lightening bolt on his face.
