Dream Big

Written and Illustrated by Emma Dodd

The copper-embossed pages are fantastic! Dream Big is a little 8″x8″ picture book about an African lion dad and his cub. The lion tells of his dreams for his cub under the coppery sun shining over the African grasslands. He gives advice on how to be brave and try new things. The pages take you on a journey of a lion, past elephants embossed in copper, swimming through rivers, and under a beautiful night sky, where the dad lets his cub know that the cub is his biggest dream come true. It’s a cute book. I’d say ages 3-6.
